A highly detailed photograph of a small, round clay pot positioned on the left side of the frame, showing about 20% damage concentrated around its brim. The background displays several meticulously stacked piles of clay pot shards, each shard at least 3–4 inches wide. The shards are neatly organized and showcase natural variations in color caused by the tanning process, including dark charcoal, brown, and gray tones. The scene is evenly lit with soft, natural light to emphasize texture and detail. The image is captured using a medium-format digital camera with a narrow aperture setting (f/22) to ensure full depth of field, allowing every shard and the pot to appear sharp and clear.
