Pewter Teapot c. 1937

Henry Meyers's "Pewter Teapot" (c. 1937) is a detailed pencil drawing of a classic teapot design. The teapot is rendered with precise shading and a realistic quality. The drawing includes additional details like a scale and measurements for the teapot. Meyers, a prolific artist, created many works featuring home objects, like this drawing, suggesting a focus on design and craftsmanship. This realistic drawing of a teapot from the artist's later career reflects a continued engagement with the themes of domesticity and everyday objects.
