Bowl 1935 - 1942

John Dana’s “Bowl” is a detailed drawing of a cobalt blue glass bowl, executed in a realist style. The piece’s rounded form is accented with a series of ridges and grooves, capturing the texture of the glass with meticulous detail. The artwork was likely created as a study for a larger project, showcasing Dana's interest in form and the interplay of light and shadow on simple objects. "Bowl" exemplifies Dana's mastery of drawing, a skill he honed throughout his long career.
