- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, West Mexico, Jalisco, ca. 300 BCE to 300 CE. A four-legged dog vessel with a most adorable form, a modestly flared lip, and a hollow cavity. The highly burnished surface has a lustrous sheen in a lively red-orange hue. The visage is decorated with two slanted incisions for eyes, a petite snout, and a slightly open slit-form mouth. Two pointed ears accents a sinewy silhouette set on four nubbin legs which gently flare out at the vessel's four corners. A nubbin tail perkily protrudes from its verso. Simply gorgeous! Size: 7.5" L x 6" W x 5" H (19 cm x 15.2 cm x 12.7 cm)
Most collectors of Pre-Columbian pottery are familiar with puppies coming from the Colima region. This more unusual puppy hails from Jalisco, and while similar to Colima dogs, there are distinct differences particularly in the shape of the face and ears. Comprised of hollow-molded terracotta and adorned in red slip with white stripes, this canine stands on all fours with its plump form and perky tail - quite eager in its countenance. Her visage is simply adorable with round eyes, a pointed snout, a central ridge extending from forehead to tip of nose, slightly parted mouth as if smiling, and raised ears.
Provenance: private Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota, USA collection, acquired before 2001; ex-private North Oaks collection, Minnesota, USA
