Punch Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

White bowl with a wide mouth and a narrow base. The bowl features a design on the front, depicting a reclining male figure with a cloth draped over his lower body, accompanied by a small dog. The figure is positioned on the lower third of the bowl. The interior and exterior of the bowl's rim are adorned with a pattern comprising two horizontal lines, with a design of hanging beads and a leaf-like motif between them. A band of scrolling foliage encircles the base. The bowl, titled "Punch Bowl", is the work of the artist.
