Adams and Company

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black-and-white photograph of a glass bowl. The bowl is clear and made of glass. It has a wide mouth and a flat bottom. The bowl's body features a textured, bumpy pattern consisting of numerous small, rounded indentations. A similar, but more pronounced, bumpy pattern is present on the rim of the bowl. The bowl is positioned centrally in the image, with its opening facing directly towards the viewer. The background of the image is a plain gray color, and the bowl casts a faint reflection on the surface below it. The title of the image is "Relish Dish by Adams and Company".
