Ceremonial Vessel

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a dark gray, weathered ceremonial vessel. The vessel features a bulbous body with a narrow neck that flares out into a small lip at the top. A long, thin, tapered spout rises from the lip. A small handle protrudes from the left side of the body, near the top. The surface exhibits visible signs of aging and wear. The background is a plain light gray color. The artist's name associated with the image is unknown but the title is "Ceremonial Vessel".
