Miquelet Pistol

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Miquelet Pistol by artist is a curved, antique firearm with a predominantly gray and silver color scheme, featuring intricate etchings. The grip is made of dark-colored material, possibly wood or ivory, and exhibits a weathered appearance. A gold-colored trigger and hammer are visible, along with a small loop at the top of the hammer. The barrel is long and slender, divided into sections by thin white lines, with etched designs throughout. Gold accents are present along the edges of these sections. The background of the image is a plain light grey color.
