Night Cap 1935 - 1942

"Night Cap" is a graphite drawing created between 1935-1942 by Percival Jenner, a prominent artist who lived a long life from 1855-1995. The drawing depicts a night cap, a common sleepwear item, in great detail, showcasing its delicate lace and intricate construction. Jenner's meticulous graphite lines capture the texture and form of the night cap, making it almost tangible. The addition of diagrams showcasing the back and front of the night cap adds to the technical accuracy of the drawing and elevates it from mere illustration to a work of art.
