Jar with Four Lugs (Guan)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a ceramic vessel. The vessel, titled "Jar with Four Lugs (Guan)" by an unidentified artist, has a bulbous body. The body is spherical and large, transitioning to a smaller cylindrical neck at the top. Four lugs are present, one on each side, with two on the left and right sides of the body visible in the image and the other two presumably on the hidden back and front. The vessel's color is primarily reddish-brown with variations in tone. The background of the image is gray.
