Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a bowl. The bowl has a wide mouth, rounded body that curves inward and a short foot. The bowl is decorated with a pattern of dark flowers and leaves on a white background. The flowers are large and have many petals, while the leaves are teardrop-shaped with pointed tips. The pattern wraps around the entire bowl. The bowl sits on a flat surface, with a plain background behind it. The overall style of the bowl suggests it may be an antique or vintage piece. Artist: English potter William Spode. Title: Bowl.
