Urn

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a stone urn by an unknown artist. The urn is made of a dark gray stone and features a rounded lid with a small knob on top. Two short handles protrude from either side of the lid. The body of the urn is rectangular with a flat bottom and four legs. The urn is decorated with intricate carvings, including what appears to be a fish on the front. A small number "499" is written in black on the front left leg. The background of the image is a plain light grey color.
