"Shaving Mug," created by Mary Ann Burton around 1940, is a watercolor depiction of a simple yet elegant mug. Burton, born in 1855 and active until her death in 1995, often captured the details of everyday objects. This artwork showcases a traditional shaving mug, decorated with delicate floral patterns in shades of pink and gray. The detail and composition highlight the beauty of everyday items, appealing to those interested in still life and decorative arts.
