Hair Pin

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photo of a hairpin titled "Hair Pin" by an unknown artist. The hairpin is made of dark metal, possibly silver or steel, with a semi-circular top and two long prongs extending downwards. The prongs are tapered to a point at the bottom and have a small circular mark on the right prong. The background is a light gray surface with a shadow cast by the hairpin on the left side. The hairpin appears to be old and worn, with signs of aging and use visible on its surface.
