Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a bowl titled "Bowl" by an unknown artist. The bowl has a rounded body with a wide mouth and a small foot. The bowl's body features an intricate floral design etched into its surface. Two handles protrude from the top of the bowl on either side, each shaped like a mythical creature with a curved body, legs, and a head. The handles are positioned on the rim of the bowl and are symmetrical. The bowl appears to be made of metal, likely bronze or silver, and has a dark patina. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
