The title is "Knob" by artist Claes Oldenburg. The image shows two clear glass doorknobs lying on their side. The knob on the right is intact and has a round glass base with a textured outer edge. The base has a circular indentation in the middle with fan-shaped etchings radiating outward. A black circular object is centered in the indentation. A metal screw extends from the base of the knob. The knob on the left has been removed from the screw and is lying beside it. This knob has a similar glass base with a less textured outer edge. The background is light grey.
