Cup and saucer 1933

Frank Graham Holmes's "Cup and Saucer" is a delightful example of decorative arts. The piece, created in 1933, features a charming depiction of Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson, in sepia tones against a white background. The cup and saucer have a delicate, hand-painted quality and showcase Holmes's skill as a ceramic artist. The piece, now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, exemplifies the enduring appeal of historical landmarks and classic design.
