Bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Bowl by Clarice Cliff, a ceramic bowl with a wide mouth and a short, thick base. The bowl's body features a repeating pattern of four-petaled flowers and leaves in varying shades of black, with the design covering the entire exterior surface. The interior of the bowl is plain and light-colored. The background of the image is light gray, with the bowl casting a shadow.
