Ladle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The ladle by artist Harrison Groutage is a long-handled kitchen utensil with a deep bowl. The bowl has a rounded shape with a slightly flared rim and a small lip around the edge. It appears to be made of metal, likely silver or stainless steel, with visible signs of wear and tear on its surface. The handle is long and curved, tapering to a point at the end. The background of the image is gray, with the ladle casting a shadow on the surface below it. The ladle is positioned at an angle, with the bowl facing left and the handle extending upward and to the right.
