Chandelier

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photo of a chandelier by artist Sienna. The chandelier has a square base with four short cylindrical protrusions, one on each corner. The base has a short stem rising from the center, with two short chains extending from either side. The chains connect to the base on either side. The stem extends up to a short stem with a loop at the top. The loop is shaped like a rounded triangle. The chandelier has a flat, square top that appears to be made of four trapezoidal pieces. The top appears weathered or dirty. The background is a plain wall with shadows cast on it.
