Water Coupe

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a ceramic vessel. The vessel, titled "Water Coupe" by an unknown artist, has a rounded body with a short, narrow neck and a small opening at the top. It appears to be made of dark-colored ceramic material with a glossy finish. The body of the vessel features an etched design that resembles a floral pattern. The background of the image is a plain gray color. A small white label at the bottom right corner reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART 1925". A ruler or measuring scale is visible along the bottom left edge.
