Pot

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a ceramic pot titled "Pot" by an unknown artist. The pot is bulbous with a wide, rounded body that tapers to a narrow, flared opening at the top. The pot has a small, circular base. The pot is primarily white with several dark cracks and chips, particularly around the top edge. The pot appears to be sitting on a small, white pedestal or stand with the numbers "17.175.3" printed on it in black text. The background is a dark gray wall and surface that the pot is sitting on. The surface appears to have some white specks or marks on it. The overall lighting is dim, with a light source coming from the right side of the image, casting a shadow to the left of the pot.
