This detailed line drawing, created by Belgian artist Charles Onghena, depicts three ceramic jugs, or *kannen*, and is part of a series of illustrations titled *Kannen van steengoed*. Onghena's meticulous work focuses on the decorative elements of the jugs, showcasing elaborate floral and geometric patterns, as well as heraldic motifs. This style of drawing was popular in the 19th century for its ability to accurately represent intricate details and provide a clear understanding of the object's form. The drawing, dated 1827-1829, likely served as a reference for potters or collectors interested in the historical styles and designs of these stoneware vessels.
