Resting dancer
The image shows a black and white photograph of a sculpture titled "Resting dancer" by an unidentified artist. The sculpture depicts a human figure with a rough texture, resembling stone or concrete, and a weathered appearance with chipped and worn surfaces. The figure is seated on its haunches with the right elbow resting on the right knee and the head leaning on the right hand. The left arm hangs down between the legs. The figure's facial features are not detailed; the head is tilted down. The background of the image is plain and light-colored. A small scale and text reading "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART 1936" are at the bottom.
