Cruet c. 1938

"Cruet" is a detailed, monochrome drawing of a glass cruet by American artist Charles Caseau. The cruet is depicted in a realistic manner, with intricate details of the glass's ribbing and its elegant shape. The piece is drawn with careful precision, highlighting Caseau's skill in capturing the delicate forms of glass objects. Though the drawing is simple, the image of the cruet, a common household object, invites viewers to consider the beauty of everyday objects, a theme that often appears in still-life art.
