Stand

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Round, shallow dish with wide mouth and raised edge. Three legs protrude from the bottom, each leg shaped like an animal's paw with three toes. The dish appears to be made of ceramic or metal, with a light-colored interior and darker exterior. A small rectangular plaque on the surface in front of the dish reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART 1980". A small ruler-like object is placed next to the plaque. The background is a dark gray wall. Stand by artist not specified.
