Covered Jar c. 1939

"Covered Jar" is a watercolor painting created by American artist George Loughridge in 1939. The artwork depicts a traditional earthenware jar with a lid, rendered in a realistic style. The simple composition and muted color palette highlight the form and texture of the ceramic object, typical of Loughridge's still life work. The artist's signature appears in the lower right corner of the painting, adding an authentic touch to the piece. The artwork is a testament to Loughridge's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the beauty of everyday objects.
