A vertical ink drawing on weathered paper captures a still life atop a modest cabinet. A bulbous pitcher rests within a shallow bowl, defined by bold outlines and dense diagonal hatching. Beside it, a cylindrical glass stands in stark simplicity. The cabinet features two paneled fronts and lean legs, rendered with spare, confident strokes. Whimsical, undulating lines in the background hint at draped fabric, adding fluid depth to the gestural, sketchy composition.
