Flask (Pitkin Type) c. 1936

"Flask (Pitkin Type)" is a painting by Charles Caseau (1880-1995), created around 1936. The artwork depicts a detailed rendering of a glass flask, with a focus on capturing its translucent qualities and intricate, ribbed surface. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of light reflecting off the glass, creating a sense of volume and depth. This realistic portrayal of an ordinary object is characteristic of still life painting, a genre that often explores the beauty of everyday things.
