Brooch and Earrings

John H. Tercuzzi

National Gallery of Art

The image displays four pieces of ancient jewelry against a plain, light-colored background. The objects include two pairs of earrings with leaf and lyre motifs, a lyre brooch, and a side view of the same brooch detail. The color palette consists of muted golds, grays, and browns. The objects are evenly spaced across the image, with the earrings facing forward and symmetrically arranged.
