A cloak covers the woman's torso, created by additional overlying strokes of cobalt, and the hem of her dress is accented with sponged cobalt. A distinctive arch of cobalt sponging appears above the figure. The jar's right side is impressed with an ornate two-gallon capacity mark featuring leaf-like veining. Provenance: Descended in the family of legendary Ohio antiques dealer, Clark Garrett.
