Roof tile fragment
Roof tile fragment by artist Met Museum. The image shows broken pieces of a roof tile arranged in two rows on a flat surface. The top row has four large pieces, and the bottom row has seven small pieces. The pieces are all shades of gray and appear to be made of clay or ceramic material. The largest piece on the left is rectangular with rough edges, while the second-largest piece is also rectangular but with more jagged edges. The third piece from the left is irregularly shaped, and the fourth piece is rectangular with a flat top. The smaller pieces in the bottom row vary in shape and size, with some being triangular and others being more irregular. The background of the image is a plain gray surface that the pieces are placed on.
