The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white photograph of a stone statue titled "Figure of Entertainer" by an unknown artist. The statue depicts a person with a cylindrical head wearing a cylindrical hat. The person's body is textured and rough. The statue sits on a base with their arms resting on an object in front of them. The object appears to be rectangular with rounded edges. The statue's right hand rests on top of the object, while the left hand is placed underneath it. The background of the image is a plain off-white color. There is a small ruler at the bottom left and a label at the bottom center that reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART 1936".
