Beaker

Samuel Drowne

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a white beaker with a monogram on the front. The beaker is made of ceramic or porcelain and has a wide mouth. It is white with a slight sheen, and the interior is a darker, more glossy material. The beaker is cylindrical in shape, with a slight taper at the bottom. On the front of the beaker, there is an engraved monogram that appears to be "M". The monogram is surrounded by decorative swirls. The beaker has some small brown spots and marks on it, possibly from use or age. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The beaker casts a slight shadow on the surface below it. The object "Beaker" is by artist Samuel Drowne.
