Stand for Wine Cup

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a "Stand for Wine Cup" by an unknown artist. The object is a curved, white, ceramic bowl-like object with a glossy finish. The bowl has no handles and no visible decorations apart from some minor red specks on the inner surface. The bowl's shape resembles a half-moon or a crescent, with both ends curving upwards. The base of the object appears to be sitting on a circular metal stand. The background is plain white with a shadow cast by the object.
