Milk Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of "Milk Bowl" by an unknown artist. A dark-colored bowl with a wide mouth and a narrow base. The bowl appears to be made of glass or ceramic. The bowl has a smooth, glossy finish with some minor imperfections and bubbles visible on its surface. It is sitting on a flat surface, casting a shadow to the left. The background is a plain light-colored wall. There are numbers written in white at the bottom and top of the image. A thick black border surrounds the image.
