Hinge

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a dark brown, rusty metal hinge. The hinge is long and thin, with one end wider than the other. There are two rounded sections, one on either side, each with one hole. There are four additional holes along the length of the hinge, spaced evenly apart. The end on the left appears to be a tab with a slight lip. On the right side, the end tapers to a point. The background is light gray. Title: Hinge. Artist not provided.
