Wedding Cake c. 1938

John Koehl's "Wedding Cake" (c. 1938) depicts a wedding cake under a glass dome, adorned with delicate white flowers. The cake is a stylized, three-tiered structure, seemingly made of buttercream frosting, with a miniature couple standing on top. Koehl's precise watercolor technique creates a realistic representation of the flowers and their subtle variations in texture, a testament to his skill and detail-oriented approach to still life.
