Speaking Trumpet

Samuel O. Klein

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large, ornate horn with intricate engravings and a flared bell at the end, accompanied by a braided rope with tassels attached. The color palette consists of shades of brown and beige, with touches of blue on the handle and tassels. The horn extends diagonally from the bottom left to the top right, while the rope hangs downward from the top center to the middle left, where it attaches to the horn. The tassels dangle from the rope towards the center of the image.
