Silver Salver c. 1939

"Silver Salver" is a graphite drawing on paper created by Vincent Carano, an American artist, in c. 1939. The artwork depicts a detailed design for a silver salver with an intricate and ornate rim. This drawing is likely a preparatory study for a larger silver object, demonstrating the artist's attention to detail and craftsmanship. The inclusion of a scale bar at the bottom of the drawing suggests that this was intended as a working drawing for a silversmith. Carano's work often explored themes of decorative arts and design, and "Silver Salver" serves as an example of his skill in rendering such delicate details.
