Jar

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a large, wide-mouthed vessel. The vessel's body is curved and tapers slightly towards the bottom. It features a design with a predominantly dark color on a lighter background, depicting multiple dragons amidst wavy lines. The vessel has a flat rim and a flat base. The overall shape and design suggest it could be a "Jar" by an unknown artist. The background of the image is a plain gray color, with the vessel casting a subtle shadow on the surface below it.
