Waist Lame

Wolfgang Grosschedel

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a curved, two-piece metal piece with a rope-like design along the bottom edge. The top edge of each piece is rounded and has three holes on each side. The surface of the metal is gray with darker gray spots and etching that resembles plants. The two pieces are placed side by side, with the curved sides facing outward and the flat bottoms almost touching. The background is white with a slight shadow underneath the metal piece. This is "Waist Lame" by Wolfgang Grosschedel.
