Tweezers

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts Tweezers by artist Jasper Johns. The object is long and made of metal, with two long, thin arms that curve slightly inward. The arms are connected at the top and have a rounded, oval-shaped opening. The bottom of the object has a rounded, teardrop-shaped opening with a small lip around the edge. The surface of the object appears to have a textured or rough finish, with visible scratches and marks. The background of the image is a light gray color, providing contrast to the darker metal object. A shadow is cast to the right of the object.
