About this work

This is a simple clay pot with a handle on top. The pot is mostly white, with a big blue flower painted on the front. Around the flower, there are green leaves and some brown shapes that look like berries or extra leaves. The pot has a small brown base and looks a little worn. The blue flower stands out because it’s the biggest thing painted on the pot. The colors are bright but faded in spots, like it’s been used a lot. The handle on top makes it look like it could hold something inside. If you like this kind of decorated pottery, check out the Museum of Ethnography.
