Covered bowl with floral pattern

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photo of two bowls. The bowl on the left is sitting on a short cylindrical base with a wide mouth and rounded body. The bowl on the right is lying on its side, with a circular indentation in the center and curved sides. Both bowls have a pattern of lines and dots around the rim. The exterior of both bowls features a floral pattern. The background appears to be a white sheet with irregular shapes. A small white ruler-like object and a small white label are in front of the bowls. The bowls are by the artist "The Metropolitan Museum".
