Knife

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image is a grayscale close-up photograph of a triangular object resembling a stone tool. The object is positioned vertically, with its base at the bottom and its tip at the top. The base is slightly curved, and the top is rounded. The object has a rough texture and appears to be made of stone. A black handwritten number "190" is visible at the bottom of the object. The background is a plain gray color, providing a neutral contrast to the object. The image appears to be a technical or documentary photograph, possibly used for archaeological or anthropological purposes, by artist Knife.
