Hatchet

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image is a black-and-white close-up photograph of a stone tool, specifically a hatchet head. The hatchet head by Gary E. Anderson is dark gray with a rough texture. The top of the hatchet head is rounded and slightly flattened, while the bottom tapers to a point. A small, illegible marking, possibly etched or scratched, appears at the bottom. The background is light gray with a slight shadow around the edges of the hatchet head. The image presents the hatchet head against a neutral background, allowing focus on the tool's details.
