Description

A shallow, open vessel with a flat base and a wide, slightly flared rim is shown in side view against a pale backdrop. Its interior is worn and flaked, with dark and pale patches, and a pale translucent rectangular shape rises from the centre. A dark horizontal line runs behind the base, and the photograph sits on a cream card mount.
