Mirror of the "Deities and Beasts"

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Mirror of the Deities and Beasts by Unknown has a dark gray, metallic color and a circular shape. The object is a flat disc with a raised edge. The surface features intricate carvings. A wide border around the edge has a leaf-like pattern. A thinner border with short lines separates the edge from the central design. The center depicts several raised figures of varying sizes, including animals and deities. A large figure appears to be surrounded by smaller ones. The background transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom.
