The image is a black-and-white photograph of an ancient ceramic kylix, or drinking cup, that has been reconstructed. The kylix has a deep, wide bowl set on a short, flaring stem. Two horizontal handles extend from either side of the bowl. The cup is heavily cracked, with visible lines where the fragments have been pieced back together. There are even a few missing pieces. It stands on a flat surface and is surrounded by white space.
