Incomplete Ring

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black-and-white photograph of an incomplete ring titled "Incomplete Ring" by an unknown artist. The ring is made of a light-colored stone or metal, possibly jade, with a rough texture and visible signs of aging. The ring is circular but not complete, with a gap at the top, and has a pattern of swirling shapes and lines carved into its surface. The ring is lying flat on a surface, with the gap at the top, and appears to be old and worn, with darker spots and discoloration visible on its surface. A small ruler or measuring device is placed below the ring, and some small text is visible at the bottom of the image. The background of the image is a plain gray surface.
