Wheel-thrown porcelain cup, painted by hand.
As a former Chicagoan, this cup’s for the City of the Broad Shoulders.
On the "B-side," the cup features a few verses from Carl Sandburg's poem 'Chicago':
Bareheaded,
Shoveling,
Wrecking,
Planning,
Building, breaking, rebuilding
On the "A-side," a sketch I made a couple years ago of just the kind of guy I imagine the poem’s describing.
A hog butcher, a tool maker, a stacker of wheat.
The cup is approximately 9 cm tall and 8 cm across (11.5 cm including the handle). Trimmed flat foot and signed underneath.
