Vessel c. 20th century

"Vessel" is a ceramic pot, created by Hopi artist Elva Nampeyo (1926–1985) in the 20th century. The vessel is a round, wide-mouthed pot with a slightly rounded base. The clay is decorated with a geometric design in black and white on a tan, orange, and brown background. The pot is characteristic of traditional Hopi pottery, which is often decorated with geometric and abstract patterns. This particular vessel can be viewed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
