Description

A globular pot with a tall neck and flared rim stands on thin supports against a dark backdrop. Its rounded body is decorated with bands of diagonal hatching and chevron-like patterns, and the surface is mottled and worn. A thin scratch crosses the print above the neck, and the photograph is mounted on a pale card.
