The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a close-up of an old, weathered metal object titled "Arrowhead (Yanone)" by an unknown artist. The object has two prongs that are curved slightly outward. The prongs are wide and flat with pointed tips. They are connected at the base by a short, narrow piece of metal. A long, thin handle extends downward from the base of the prongs. The metal is gray and has a rough texture with visible signs of wear and tear. The background is solid black.
