What the image shows

A bronze figurine depicts two stylized animals, possibly goats, interacting on a horizontal bar.

Generated by LinkedCulture from the photograph alone, without the museum’s catalogue text (Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct), and not yet reviewed by a person. It describes the picture, not the object’s history, and it is not part of the museum’s record.

From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record

Persia (Iran), Asia Dimensions: 4 7/8 x 3 5/8 x 7 1/4 in. (12.38 x 9.21 x 18.42 cm)

The authoritative record is held by Minneapolis Institute of Art. LinkedCulture surfaces this object and its connections; it does not alter institutional metadata.
