Roberta Elvis's "Cruet" is a detailed watercolor drawing of a silver cruet from circa 1936. Elvis was known for her meticulous renderings of still-life subjects, highlighting the intricate details of household objects. The drawing features a spiral pattern on the cruet's body, adding a touch of visual interest to the simple, yet elegant design. The "ACTUAL SIZE" inscription at the bottom indicates the work's purpose as a faithful representation of the cruet's dimensions.
