The image shows a black and white photograph of a ceramic bottle by artist Kōbō Abe. The bottle has a narrow neck and a bulbous body. The body of the bottle is mostly a light color, with dark splotches and bumps covering the upper half. The bumps are small and rounded. The dark coloration gets denser on the left side of the bottle, with distinct splotches on the neck. The background is a plain wall with a shadow cast by the bottle on the left side. The bottle sits on a flat surface.
