Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a white vase. The vase is made of a smooth, shiny material, possibly ceramic or jade. It has a wide, rounded body that tapers slightly at the top and bottom. The top of the vase is narrow and circular, with a small lip around the edge. There are two small, rounded handles on either side of the vase, just below the lip. The vase is sitting on a flat surface, casting a shadow to the left. The background is dark gray. The artist and title of the vase are "Vase".
