Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a metal bottle titled "Bottle" by an unnamed artist. The bottle has a wide, rounded base that tapers to a narrower neck with a circular rim at the top. The bottle's surface features a shiny, reflective appearance with visible wear and darker spots. Two carved images are on the lower portion, one on each side, depicting people. The background is a single-color gray tone. The bottle is positioned upright against a plain backdrop.
