Kettle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a kettle by artist Moriguchi Kuniyoshi. The kettle is made of dark metal. It has a rounded body with a short neck and a curved spout to the right. A thin handle extends from the back of the kettle, curving up and over the top. The handle has a circular metal piece at the top. The lid is on top of the kettle, slightly askew toward the left. The kettle sits on a gradient gray background that fades to black at the top.
