Giuseppe Grisoni's "Pattern for Ewer" is a delicate watercolor design for a silver ewer. The drawing depicts a bulbous-shaped vessel with an ornate, elongated spout and a decorative handle. The ewer sits on a footed base and is adorned with a repeated pattern of ovals and diamonds. The use of light blue and yellow wash highlights the delicate form and ornamentation of the ewer, suggesting a possible use of enamel or jewels. The design reflects the Rococo aesthetic of the 18th century, with its emphasis on asymmetry, flowing lines, and delicate ornamentation.
