Wine cup

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows two small ceramic cups. The cups are white with dark gray stripes and speckles. They have a wide mouth that tapers down to a small base. The cups are positioned side by side, with the left cup slightly angled to the left and the right cup facing forward. The cups cast a shadow on the surface below them. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The title of the image is "Wine cup" by an unknown artist.
