- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, Ecuador, Jamacoaque (Jama Coaque) culture, ca. 500 CE. A hand-built pottery effigy of a woman standing atop a pair of conjoined feet. She presents nude with open palms stretched down to her waist and wears several bangles on each wrist, a series of concentric necklaces, and a petite ovoid pendant that drapes between her breasts. Her expressive visage bears semicircular eyes within heavy lids, a thick ring ornamenting her nose, parted lips, and flared ears, all beneath a rounded cap accentuated with lengthy lappets. Embellished with fugitive pigment in hues of marigold, turquoise, white, and maroon, this is a fine example of ancient Jamacoaque figural artistry! Size: 5.6" W x 8.625" H (14.2 cm x 21.9 cm); 9.1" H (23.1 cm) on included custom stand.
Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-private lifetime collection of Dr. Saul Tuttman and Dr. Gregory Siskind, New York, New York, USA, acquired in the 1980s
