Jar with Cover

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Jar with Cover by an unknown artist is a black and white image of a tall, ornate vase with a lid. The vase has a wide body that tapers slightly towards the top and bottom. It features a series of rectangular panels with intricate designs and illustrations of trees, flowers, and other foliage. The panels are separated by ornate borders. The lid is domed with a small knob on top and also features intricate designs. The vase appears to be made of ceramic or porcelain and is decorated with a combination of line drawings and shading. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
