Description

About fifteen irregular fragments of pitted, crusted grey metal are laid out across a pale background. Several are flat slabs with bubbled, rough surfaces, while a curved fragment at lower left and a bent piece at lower right suggest the edges of a larger shape. A number label appears in the lower right corner.
