Cleveland Museum of Art

The vessel is in the shape of a jaguar. The body is large and rounded, with a wide mouth at the top. The vessel has four legs, the front two resembling the upper arms of a human. The legs are flared at the bottom. The body is decorated with black, red, and tan designs. The mouth of the vessel is open, revealing a hollow interior. The background of the image is a gradient of dark blue to light blue. The vessel appears to be made of clay and has a handle that extends from the mouth of the jaguar. The handle is curved and attached to the body. The vessel is titled "Vessel: Jaguar(?)" and is by an unknown artist.
