- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, North Coast Peru, Chancay culture, ca. 800 to 1200 CE. An amazing textile comprised of two woven panels of camelid fibers, likely alpaca or llama, in earthen tones of chestnut brown, gray, and beige. The patterned textile consists of three loosely woven columns of three squares with similar motifs. The pattern is perhaps a highly stylized zoomorphic creature, such as a monkey or feline with a curled tail. The weaving is intentionally loose and of an open weave design like lace. This patterned weaving is mounted on a solid panel of another Chancay textile with a tighter and simple weave, of a monochrome beige hue that may have been used as a wrapping. The textiles of the ancient Chancay demonstrate their immense artistic and technical developments achieved through generations of textile weaving. Size (open weave panel): 21" L x 15" W (53.3 cm x 38.1 cm); (solid panel): 32" L x 21" W (81.3 cm x 53.3 cm)
Provenance: ex-Drimmer collection, Florida, USA, before 1965
