Description

A single broken pottery sherd, shown as a painted drawing on a pale card mount. Its reddish-orange surface carries vertical red bands that taper and thicken toward their ends, with a pale, unpainted area at the upper left where the edge has broken away. A handwritten label appears in the lower right corner of the card.
