Bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image is a black and white photograph of a dark gray ceramic bottle. The bottle has a wide body that tapers to a narrow neck with a small opening at the top. The body of the bottle is bulbous and rounded, and it sits on a flat base. The surface of the bottle appears to have a cracked texture, with many fine lines running across it. The background of the image is a plain light gray color, with a slight shadow cast by the bottle on the surface below it. The title of the image is "Bottle" and the artist is not specified.
