Fob Seal

Kalamian Walton

National Gallery of Art

Three gold artifacts are displayed against a plain off-white background: a square-shaped ring at the top, an elongated triangular object to the bottom left, and a circular object with a handle to the right. The color palette is primarily gold with subtle variations in tone and shadow adding depth to the designs on each object. The ring is positioned centrally on the page, with the square shape drawing attention. Below it, to the left, is the elongated triangular object tapering towards a small loop. To the bottom right, the circular object, resembling a frame with a looped handle, completes the triangular arrangement of the artifacts on the page.
