The image shows a black and white photo of a vase titled "Bottle" by an unknown artist. The object is a two-part vessel. The bottom portion resembles a jar with a rounded body that tapers in at the top. The top portion has a rounded body that tapers in at the top and the bottom. It has two handles on either side. The two parts are stacked on top of each other. The object is a dark color with a splotchy texture and appears to have a crack down the front. The background is white. A small portion of text at the bottom reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM".
