Cast Iron Tea Kettle

William Schmidt

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a large black kettle with a round body and a spout. The color palette consists of dark gray against a cream-colored background. The kettle is centered in the composition, with its spout extending to the left and positioned in the middle of the frame. A curved handle arches over the top of the kettle, adding symmetry and balance to the design.
