Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a square object known as "Snuff Box" by artist unknown. The object, a snuff box, has a brown background with gold speckles. In the center is a circular image framed in gold. Inside the circular image is a cherub playing a trumpet. The cherub sits on a blue cloth, with wing on its back, under a tree. The cherub has a drum on the left beside it. The background of the circular image shows grass and stone steps leading to water with a town on the horizon. The object sits on a grey surface and a black to grey gradient fills the background.
