Pitcher c. 1905

This ceramic Pitcher was created by Paul Dachsel, a German-born artist, in 1905. Dachsel's work, characterized by its intricate design and elegant curves, is a prime example of Art Nouveau style. The pitcher's elongated form and the delicate, flowing lines of its handle evoke the natural world, reminiscent of a willow branch. It is currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, providing a glimpse into the aesthetic sensibilities of the early 20th century.
