Silver Tankard

Charles Cullen

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a detailed pencil drawing of a large ornate tankard. The tankard is the main focus and takes up most of the composition. The drawing is in monochrome with different shades of gray for shadows and details. In the bottom right corner, there is a rectangular inset with additional decorations and an "H I S" monogram. In the top left corner, there is a small, simplistic sketch of the tankard. The tankard is centered with the handle extending to the right side, and the decorative inset is in the lower right corner.
