Basket

Charles Charon

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a rectangular woven basket with a detailed pattern of overlapping strips. The basket's exterior has a darker, cross-hatched design, while the inside has a simpler weave. The color palette consists of earthy tones such as brown, beige, and hints of yellow. The basket is positioned slightly to the right and tilted away from the viewer, allowing a clear view of both the exterior pattern and the inner weave from a slightly top-down angle.
