Vessel 1935 - 1942

"Vessel" is a detailed pencil drawing by Mary Berner, a prolific artist known for her intricate depictions of objects. Created between 1935 and 1942, this small-scale work showcases Berner's keen eye for detail and her ability to render the texture and form of a ceramic vessel. The drawing, featuring a stylized floral design, emphasizes the interplay of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and realism. This still life piece, measuring just 15 by 16 centimeters, is a testament to the power of subtle, yet masterful craftsmanship.
