Fragment

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Gray and white image of a triangular fragment with faint writing. Fragment by unknown artist. The object is a broken piece with a rough edge and a smooth surface. The surface has lines and marks on it. It is gray and white in color. The object is positioned at an angle, with the top pointing to the right side. The background of the image is a solid light grey color. The object takes up most of the image, with some empty space around it. The image appears to be a close-up shot of the object.
