Hatchet

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a hatchet by artist unknown titled "Hatchet". The image shows a close-up view of a metal object, likely a hatchet head. The object is positioned vertically with the curved blade facing downwards. The metal appears worn and weathered with visible signs of aging and use. The top of the object is wider than the bottom, tapering to a curved edge. A number "173" is stamped on the lower part of the object. The background is plain and light-colored, providing a neutral contrast to the darker tones of the metal object.
