Goat

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The marble sculpture depicts a goat by artist Isamu Noguchi. The sculpture is a white marble figurine with black spots and streaks throughout. The goat's head is turned to the left, with its nose pointed slightly upward. The sculpture has a smooth, polished surface. The goat is lying down, with its body curved and its legs tucked underneath. It has a distinctive pair of curved horns on its head. The background is a dark gray color, which helps to highlight the details of the sculpture.
