Description

A single pottery jug with a rounded body, a tall narrow neck with a flared rim, and a loop handle that rises from the shoulder to the rim. It stands on a low ring foot on a pale surface against a pale draped backdrop. The dark surface is pitted and shows lighter patches of wear, and handwritten notes appear along the lower edge of the mount.
