Jar c. 1937

"Jar" is a watercolor painting created by Yolande Delasser circa 1937. This realistic depiction of a stoneware jar with blue floral decoration, likely a traditional American "crock", showcases Delasser's keen eye for detail and her mastery of watercolor technique. The painting captures the subtle variations in texture and color of the ceramic vessel, rendering it with a sense of weight and presence. While the subject matter is straightforward, Delasser's approach elevates the ordinary object to a work of art, drawing attention to the beauty found in everyday items.
