Ram's Head

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a ram's head. The head is made of bronze and has a brown patina with green spots. It features a wide, curved forehead, two small horns on either side, small eyes, a short snout with two nostrils, and a mouth with a slight smile. The sculpture sits on a short neck-like base. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The sculpture rests on a small black rectangular stand.
