Man with Dice

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture "Man with Dice" by an unknown artist depicts a small, intricately carved figure of a man with a bald head and a traditional robe. The man is crouched down behind a low table and surrounded by dice of various sizes. He holds a large dice in one hand and a tool in the other. The table has several dice on it and to the side is a small stand with more dice stacked on it. To the left and right of the table are two cylindrical objects resembling containers. The entire sculpture is made of a light-colored material, likely ivory, and rests on a small oval base with three legs. The background of the image is dark gray, which helps to highlight the details of the sculpture.
