Salt Cellar c. 1937

This is a technical drawing by Lorenz Rothkranz, from around 1937, for a salt cellar. The drawing, which is in blue ink, shows multiple perspectives of the object and is rendered in a highly realistic style. It is a good example of the precision required in technical drawing to represent an object accurately for manufacturing. The drawing was likely intended for a client who commissioned the creation of the salt cellar.
