Pitcher

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a Pitcher by an unknown artist. The pitcher is made of glass or ceramic material and features a ribbed, diamond-patterned body. It has a wide mouth with a wavy rim and a curved handle on the right side. The pitcher is predominantly white with a darker color towards the top. The base of the pitcher is round and sturdy. The background of the image is a plain wall, and the pitcher casts a shadow on the surface it's sitting on.
