Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image displays a gray vase by artist Bernard Leach. The vase has a wide, rounded body with a small base. It tapers to a narrow neck and flares out to a rim at the top. The vase is decorated with horizontal lines. It has a rough texture and dark spots. The background is a plain gray color that gets darker behind the vase. The vase sits on a white surface. The overall effect is a simple yet elegant design.
