Footed Bowl

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Footed Bowl by Unknown Artist. The bowl is made of clay and has a beige color with darker brown stripes. It has a wide mouth and a narrow base with a short stem. The bowl has two small handles on either side. The exterior has a design consisting of vertical lines on the lower half and horizontal lines on the upper half. A central motif features a triangular shape with lines extending from it, resembling a leaf or a feather. The background of the image is a gradient from light gray to dark gray. The bowl casts a shadow on the surface below it. The bowl appears to be old and worn.
