Bucket

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black, metal bucket titled "Bucket" by artist Isamu Noguchi. The bucket is made of dark metal, possibly bronze or iron. It has a wide, rounded body that tapers slightly towards the top. A decorative border runs around the top of the bucket, featuring a geometric pattern. A large, square section on the front of the bucket appears blank. The bucket has a handle made of two curved metal loops that meet at the top, forming a circular shape. The background of the image is light gray. The bucket sits on a flat surface, casting a slight shadow to the left.
