Cup c. 1953

Jessica Price's "Cup," a watercolor painting created around 1953, depicts a simple ceramic cup with a handle against a plain white background. The cup is rendered with meticulous detail, capturing its brown and red tones and the uneven texture of its surface. Price's minimalist approach draws attention to the form of the object and the subtle variations in its color and material, making this everyday item a compelling subject for her still life. The painting's delicate brushstrokes and restrained palette contribute to a sense of tranquility and evoke a sense of timelessness.
