Cake dish

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image is a black and white photo of a cake dish by artist Isamu Noguchi. The cake dish has a wide, shallow bowl with a rough, textured interior and exterior surface. The bowl's interior features a series of irregular, curved indentations around its perimeter. The exterior has a series of three legs shaped like animal feet or paws. The legs are bulbous at the bottom and taper up to connect to the bowl. The surface of the entire piece appears cracked. The background of the image is light gray.
