DescriptionA polychrome bowl with a Mimbres-inspired rabbit design. Two identical rabbits are on either side of the jar. Each rabbit has a round head, thin legs, and a body composed of a curved triangle with a smaller gray triangle inside. This gray triangle is the only color in the work, which is otherwise black-on-white. The rabbits are separated by stripes of triangles and fine lines. The opening of the bowl is painted black and the interior is white.
