Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The vase by Art Nouveau artist, is white with a textured background. A teardrop-shaped panel on the vase depicts a winged figure with their right arm bent at the elbow and their left arm extended downward. Their right leg is bent and tucked behind them. Their left leg bends forward at the knee and their foot disappears behind the bottom edge of the panel. The panel with the winged figure is framed with a line of bumps on the inside and wavy lines on the outside. A cluster of grapes, leaves and flowers are on the left and right sides of the vase. The neck is fluted with leaves on the outside and the mouth flares out like a flower.
