Miniature Rhomboidal Basket

Cleveland Museum of Art

Miniature Rhomboidal Basket by an unknown artist. The basket is made of light brown wicker or straw, woven into a rhomboidal shape. The basket has a flat bottom and slightly curved sides. It is small in size. Two dark brown feathers are attached to either side of the basket, near the top. The feathers are long and thin with a fluffy texture at the end. The background is a gray surface with a shadow cast by the basket. The shadow is darker at the top and lighter at the bottom.
