Plaque in the shape of a fish
The image depicts a plaque in the shape of a fish by an unknown artist. Three elongated fish shapes are hanging vertically from a metal bar. The fish shapes are textured with scales and fins; their bodies are smooth and feature detailed etchings. The fish on the left and right are similar in size and shape, while the one in the middle is slightly larger. Each fish has a hole at the top for suspension from the metal bar. The metal bar is straight and horizontal, attached to a vertical pole that extends down to a flat base. The base appears to be square or rectangular. The background is plain and light-colored. The image is in black and white. The fish plaques display signs of aging with discoloration and surface wear.
