Candlestick

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Candlestick by Martin Brothers: A white ceramic sculpture of a sitting dog with a gold-painted mane. The dog is sitting on a rectangular base and facing to the right. It has a long snout, floppy ears, and a collar around its neck that is painted gold. The dog's body is white with some gold paint on its back and tail. The sculpture appears to be old and worn, with some chipped paint and cracks on its surface. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
