Tripod Vessel with Lid

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Tripod Vessel with Lid by unknown artist shows a ceramic vessel with a wide, cylindrical body and three legs. The vessel is made of clay and has a light brown color with darker brown and black areas, possibly from smoke or fire. A thin red line encircles the middle of the vessel. The interior of the vessel is darker than the exterior, with visible signs of wear and tear. The three legs are cylindrical and tapered, with the back leg partially obscured from view. The background is a gradient of dark gray to light gray, with a shadow cast by the vessel to the right.
