Plaque

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Rectangular plaque with rounded edges, made of carved white material, possibly stone or jade. The plaque features an intricate design with curved lines and shapes cut out. A black handwritten number "495" is visible on the top center. The plaque is displayed on a black stand with a rectangular base and a thin vertical pole. A small ruler-like object with markings and text "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART 1931" is placed in front of the stand. The background is a plain light-colored wall. The plaque is by an unknown artist.
