The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image is a black and white photograph of a creamer by artist unknown. The creamer has a wide mouth with a lip around the top edge, featuring small notches; the lip is flat and horizontal. A handle is attached to the right side, curving up and back. The body of the creamer is bulbous with a wavy design. The creamer sits on a reflective surface, with its reflection visible below. The background is a plain wall, transitioning from light to dark gray.
