Description

This close-up photograph captures a potter's hands covered in wet clay as they skillfully shape a ceramic bowl on a spinning pottery wheel. The artisan wears a blue and white plaid shirt while carefully smoothing the rim of the unglazed vessel. Visible concentric throwing lines texture the interior surface of the bowl. The lighting highlights the damp texture of the clay and the hands of the maker.
