Shallow Dish

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The title of the piece is "Shallow Dish" by the artist Berndt Petterson. The image shows a round shallow dish made of metal. The dish has a raised edge around its circumference. The metal surface appears weathered with darker speckles and spots on a lighter background. A depression in the center creates a concave shape. The dish casts a shadow on the surface below it. The background is a plain gray color.
