Boa

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a dark green, fuzzy, snake-like object. The object is long and curved into an S-shape, with the top curve resembling a backward C-shape and the bottom curve resembling a forward C-shape. The object is mostly black but appears slightly green in certain areas. It has a fuzzy texture with many short strands. The background is beige with a slight shadow around the edges. The title of the image is "Boa" by an unknown artist. The object takes up most of the image, with some empty space around it.
