Bottle c. 1936

"Bottle" is a watercolor painting created by Alfred Walbeck in 1936. The work features a detailed rendering of a brown glass bottle, with a simple outline of the same bottle presented in the upper left corner. The detailed, almost photographic depiction of the bottle suggests a focus on realism and the artist's meticulous observation. Walbeck, a prolific American artist, produced numerous works depicting still life and everyday objects. His "Bottle" is an example of his keen eye for capturing the beauty and simplicity found in the ordinary.
