Square Cup

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of two octagonal cups. Cups have a wide mouth and a short foot. Cups are decorated with black designs on a white background. The designs are intricate and include floral patterns. A border of curvilinear lines runs along the top and bottom of each cup. Each cup has four rectangular panels with curved sides, each panel containing a different section of the floral design. The cups are placed on a white surface, with a shadow cast to the right of each cup. The title of the image is "Square Cup" by an unknown artist.
