The image shows a black and white photograph of a fan titled "Fan" by an unidentified artist. The fan is open and resting on a surface, with its ribs fanned out. The fan has a black handle and ribs. The fan's cover is white and gray striped, with a design of two black birds facing each other, one holding white flowers in its beak. The birds are surrounded by green leaves. A small rectangular label on the surface to the right of the fan reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART". A ruler-like object is placed to the left of the fan on the surface. The background is a plain wall.
