Table Spoon

Joseph Richardson Jr.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a spoon. The spoon has an oval bowl that is shiny and smooth. The handle is long and narrow, with a rounded end that is engraved with the letters "J R Jr". The engraving appears to be on the top right side of the handle, near the end. The spoon is lying on a flat surface, and the background is white with some shadows cast by the spoon. The image is in black and white.
