Arrowhead (<i>Yanone</i>)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a close-up of a large metal tool titled "Arrowhead (Yanone)" by an unknown artist. The metal tool has a long, thin handle made of dark brown metal, possibly rusted. The tool's head is silver-colored and V-shaped, with two curved prongs that are symmetrical and pointed outward. The prongs are wide and flat, with a slight curve at the tips. The metal appears weathered, with small dark spots and marks on its surface. The background of the image is solid black.
