Face Urn
The Face Urn by Bernard Leach is a ceramic vessel with a bulbous body and a wide mouth. The vessel has a dark gray and brown color with visible signs of wear and aging. It features a face on the front, which includes two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. The face is created through raised details that form the features. The background of the image is dark at the top and lightens towards the bottom, with the urn casting a shadow on the surface it sits on.
