Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image. Three black glass bottles on a table. The two larger bottles on the left are similar. The largest on the left edge is bulbous with a narrow neck and a stopper. The body of the bottle is glossy and oval shaped with the narrower top facing up. There's an oval cut-out on the top that is one-third of the way down. The second largest in the middle is smaller and similar in shape. The bottle on the right edge is small and pear-shaped with a glossy surface and a short neck. The wall behind the table is plain light-colored. There is a small white label on the table in front of the second and third bottle. "Bottle" by Isamu Noguchi.
