Beaten Brass Pot and Terracotta Jar

A beaten-brass pot draped with a white cloth sits at the centre, a terracotta jar tipped on its side before it and a clear glass bottle with a dark cap standing to the right. Blue cloth falls at the left against a warm olive ground.

The pastel is handled broadly and warmly, the dimpled metal and the matte earthenware built up in loose, confident strokes. A single green lime supplies a cool accent. The study values honest, everyday vessels and the frank play of daylight across their different surfaces.
