Brush Washer: Longquan Ware

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Brush Washer: Longquan Ware is a ceramic vessel. The vessel has a wide mouth with a short, flared rim. The body of the vessel is bulbous with a slight indentation in the middle and a narrow base. The entire piece is covered in a seafoam green glaze that fades to a light gray around the rim. The base of the piece reveals a brown clay body. The background of the image transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom. The piece casts a shadow to the right.
