Tobacco Pipe

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a "Tobacco Pipe" by an unknown artist. The pipe has a dark brown wooden stem and a darker brown bowl. The stem tapers from the bowl to the mouthpiece end. The bowl is on the lower left side, and the mouthpiece points up and to the right. Metal bands are around the bowl and middle of the stem. The background transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom. The pipe casts a shadow on the surface below. The surface and background meet at a diagonal line.
