The image shows a bronze fibula, which is a type of ancient brooch used to fasten clothing. The fibula is tarnished with green corrosion, indicating its age. It features a rectangular plate with decorative elements that have been partially obscured by damage. The pin is intact and extends horizontally, while the bow of the fibula forms a semi-circular shape with a decorative knob at the top. The condition of the fibula suggests it is an artifact, likely found during an archaeological excavation. The background is plain white, highlighting the object.

Here is a description of the image:

The image showcases an ancient fibula, an ornate brooch, likely dating back to antiquity. The fibula is made of a copper alloy that has oxidized, giving it a green and dark patina over its surface. It is presented against a clean white background.

The fibula's design is complex:

  • Body: The primary element features a plate-like structure that appears to be the body of the brooch. The plate has been extensively damaged, with substantial portions missing and edges showing signs of wear. Fine lines and remnants of possible decorative patterns are visible across the remaining surface.
  • Bow/Arc: The curved arc, which forms the main part of the clasp, is complete. It is a thick, rod-like structure that extends from the plate. The bow is detailed at its connection with the plate, which is accentuated by a series of raised ridges, and is capped with a distinct, geometric design.
  • Pin: The clasp is finished by a pin that seems intact. It has a simple spiral-like loop at the bow, and it gradually tapers to a point.

The overall impression is one of an artifact of considerable age, rich in both history and artistry, likely recovered through an archeological dig. The damaged state of the fibula, along with its weathered patina, adds to its historical character.
