- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, West Mexico, Jalisco, ca. 300 BCE to 300 CE. A hand-built pottery woman standing atop stocky legs and dramatically arched feet. The nude female figure has a straight posture and presents with perky breasts, a belly that droops slightly over her pubis, and broad shoulders with attenuated arms. Her head bears a greater sense of verism compared to her body and exhibits puffy almond-shaped eyes, a naturalistic nose with flared nostrils and a petite nose ring, a gaping mouth showing incised teeth, and tab-shaped ears with discoid earrings, all beneath a simple cap surmounted with a shallow crest. Thick red pigment envelops the entire body with black 'tattooing' coursing across the body and face as well as a white 'beaded' necklace around the neck. A visually pleasing example of ancient West Mexican artistry. Size: 6.25" W x 9.375" H (15.9 cm x 23.8 cm); 9.8" H (24.9 cm) on included custom stand.
Provenance: private S.H. collection, Santa Clara, California, USA, purchased in the 1990s from Folk Art International, San Francisco, California, USA; ex-L. K. Land collection
