Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

White vase with a narrow opening at the top that widens and curves outward, then tapers down to the base. The vase features three figures wearing traditional Chinese clothing. A woman in a pink garment with yellow pants holds a blue and yellow parasol over a woman in a blue garment with yellow pants and an orange shawl. A third woman, dressed in a pink garment, stands on the right. The background of the image is gray, transitioning from dark to light. The title of the piece is "Vase".
