Pa. German Butter Mold c. 1938

This watercolor by Roy Weber, dated c. 1938, depicts a Pennsylvania Dutch butter mold. The mold is in the shape of a half-circle and features a central pineapple motif surrounded by stylized leaves. The intricate detail and use of browns and greens create a realistic depiction of the mold's surface. Weber's interest in documenting Pennsylvania Dutch folk art captures the beauty and cultural significance of these everyday objects.
