Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a ceramic bowl titled "Bowl" by the artist. The bowl is positioned centrally, angled slightly towards the viewer to the right, with its opening facing the viewer. The bowl has an uneven rim with some parts higher than others. The exterior is primarily off-white with darker speckles throughout and a band of uneven blue-green color around the bottom. The base of the bowl is short and thick with a rough texture. The background is grey, with the bowl casting a shadow to the left.
