Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a Vase by an unknown artist. The vase has a glossy red-brown finish. The vase has a narrow base that widens into a bulbous body with a narrower and flared top. The bottom of the vase is circular and flat. The background of the image is light gray with a shadow cast by the vase. The overall appearance suggests the vase could be made of ceramic or glass.
