This drawing shows two dark glass jars tied with twine and leaves. The jars have metal caps and ribbed sides, sitting slightly tilted. Plump plums hang from the twine, their glossy skins catching the light. The artist added crayon details to the printed image, making the textures pop. The shadows and highlights make the jars look almost real. Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
