Description

A painted drawing of a pottery vessel in side view on a pale cream background. It has a wide, shallow bowl with a flared rim, a body that narrows to a small ring foot, and a single strap handle rising from the rim on the right and ending in a curl. The surface is shaded in brownish-grey washes, with darker tones inside the bowl.
