Hanging Basket
Hanging Basket by artist M.C. Escher. The image shows a hanging basket suspended from a white metal handle with blue floral decorations on each end. The handle is attached to the basket by four silver chains. The basket itself is white with a pattern of small holes and sits on a base with a similar design. The top of the basket features a colorful floral pattern with green trim. The background of the image is a plain gray color. The basket appears to be made of ceramic or porcelain. The overall design of the basket and its hanging mechanism suggests it may be intended for decorative purposes.
