Jug c. 1937

Yolande Delasser’s “Jug” (c. 1937) is a watercolor painting depicting a stoneware jug with a blue floral motif. This artwork showcases the artist’s meticulous attention to detail and her ability to capture the texture and form of the jug. The use of watercolor allows for subtle shading and highlights, enhancing the realistic depiction. The single jug, set against a simple white background, becomes the focal point of the painting. The blue floral design is a recurring motif in Delasser’s work, reflecting her interest in traditional folk art and the beauty of everyday objects. This painting, like many of her other works, is a testament to the timeless appeal of still life and the power of simple beauty.
