Silver Beaker

Lawrence Flynn

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a plaque or tablet with an inscription. The drawing features a rectangular base with horizontal lines towards the bottom, likely representing a pedestal. The main focus is the inscription which reads, "A Gift To the Church of Northford by Josiah Rogers their first Deacon." The inscription is rendered in an elegant script. Below the depiction of the plaque, to the right, is the signature of Lawrence Flynn. The use of clean lines and classic typography gives the artwork a refined and historical feel.
