Cup

Chinese Qing Dynasty

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture is a rounded, bowl-like object with smooth, curved surfaces. It is a uniform, matte white color and looks like it is made of ceramic. Its form is slightly wider than its height, with a softly rounded body that tapers towards a narrow base. The top edge opens smoothly into a circular rim. The sculpture has a simple, minimalist design with gentle curves and a monochromatic finish.
