Tobacco Pipe

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a tobacco pipe by artist titled "Tobacco Pipe". The pipe is long and dark with a rough texture. The pipe starts on the left with a rounded black end that curves down. The pipe then straightens out horizontally across the center with two shiny metal bands around it. The pipe narrows slightly at the first band and then bulges before narrowing again just before the second band. The pipe then tapers to a point at the end on the right. The background is light gray.
