Stoneware Jug c. 1937

Annie B. Johnston's "Stoneware Jug" from 1937 is a drawing depicting a large stoneware jug with a rounded body and a short neck. The jug is illustrated in a simple, almost minimalist style with details of the blue and white design, and the label "St. Brewer, New London 1" is visible near the top of the jug. The drawing is a great example of Johnston's work in the early 20th century. Her work is characterized by its focus on American folk art traditions and her talent for capturing the essence of everyday objects in a captivating way.
