Pitcher 1901

This silver pitcher, created in 1901 and attributed to Archibald Knox, is a prime example of the Art Nouveau style. Its sinuous curves and stylized floral motifs are characteristic of the movement, which emphasized organic forms and flowing lines. The pitcher's simple, elegant design is enhanced by the green gemstone set into the side, adding a touch of color and texture. This piece is a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of the Art Nouveau era, showcasing the movement's influence on both functional and decorative objects. The Minneapolis Institute of Art houses this piece, which is a beautiful example of the Art Nouveau design and its use of organic forms.
