Vessel in the Form of a Frog

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a vessel in the form of a frog, by an unknown artist titled "Vessel in the Form of a Frog". The vessel has a bulbous body with a short neck and a small opening at the top. The body of the vessel is primarily spherical. A protrusion on the left side forms the head and mouth of a frog. The vessel's surface features intricate designs and patterns, including what appears to be foliage and other natural motifs. The vessel appears to be made of ceramic or pottery material. The background of the image is a plain gray color, which helps to highlight the details of the vessel. A shadow is cast to the left of the vessel.
