Shard (Study Collection)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a triangular ceramic shard with a white background and dark gray designs. The shard is centered and fills most of the image. The shard's base is at the bottom and its point faces upwards. The shard's surface is white with a design that appears to be painted on. The design features two horizontal lines that arc across the shard, one near the top and one near the middle. Below the middle line are two dark gray swirling patterns. The top of the shard features two small rounded triangular shapes. The shard appears to be broken on the right side. The background of the image is plain white. The title of the image is "Shard (Study Collection)" by an unidentified artist.
