Jar c. 1940

John Tarantino's "Jar" from c. 1940 is a detailed watercolor study of a stoneware jar. The depiction showcases the artist's meticulous attention to detail in capturing the texture and color of the earthenware. The blue-toned glaze and the inscription "C.C. ROLIUS NEW YORK" add a touch of historical charm to the composition. This realistic depiction of a humble jar provides a glimpse into the daily lives of people in the early 20th century.
