Description

A pen-and-ink drawing on pale paper shows two vessels side by side, each with a rim at the top and a low ring foot. The left vessel has a rounded, ovoid body, while the right has a conical upper body meeting a sharp angle at the shoulder above a lower body that narrows to the foot. Both bodies are shaded with cross-hatching, and faint pencil guidelines cross the sheet.
