The image displays a black and white photograph of a glass compote by artist "Compote". The compote has a wide bowl with a decorative pattern etched into it, featuring rounded scalloped edges. The bowl is supported by a short stem with a decorative middle section and a wide circular base. The base features an etched design around its edge and a central etched floral pattern. A small piece of paper with handwritten text reading "51.171.12" is placed in front of the compote. The compote is centered in the image, casting a shadow to the left. The background is a plain white surface.
