Jean-Jacques Feuchère designed this coupe with graphite, creating an image that is symmetrical yet richly adorned with ornamentation. The work balances the tension between form and decoration. The drawing employs a neoclassical style, evident in its symmetrical structure and elaborate ornamentation. The composition consists of a bowl-shaped top, an ornate stem, and an elaborate base, each detailed with precision. Note how Feuchère's line work is meticulous, defining every curve and flourish of the design. The drawing’s structure presents an ideal form, while the detailed ornamentation reflects cultural values of luxury and status. Consider how the drawing destabilizes established meanings of functionality by transforming a simple bowl into an elaborate display of artistry. The work functions not merely as a design but as a statement about the cultural and philosophical values of its time.
