Wine Glass

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photo of a Wine Glass by an unknown artist. The glass is tall and slender with a wide bowl that tapers to a narrow stem and a circular base. The bowl of the glass features an etched design around the top, depicting a leafy branch with berries. Below the etched design is a geometric pattern. The glass appears to be made of clear glass with small bubbles visible within. The glass is sitting on a flat surface against a plain background.
