Wine bottle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of a hexagonal wine bottle. The bottle is square in shape but has six sides. A small vase-like spout protrudes from the top. The bottle has a white background with a black border and black images. On one side, a person in a robe stands next to bamboo. On another side, a mythical creature with a flame-like tail stands under a tree. The creature has two horns on its head. A bird sits on a branch above it. The images on the bottle are surrounded by a black border with a curled pattern. The top and bottom of the bottle also have a curled pattern. The background of the photograph is white.
