- Lot Description
Ancient Near East, Mesopotamia, ca. late 3rd to early 2nd millennium BCE. A mold-formed earthenware relief panel depicting a nude, right-facing male figure. He boasts a dramatic striding pose with his left leg extended beneath a slender waist, with one arm held to his muscular chest and the other hanging at his side, and rounded shoulders tapering inward to a thick neck. The bald, rounded head displays a minimalist countenance comprised of a single almond-shaped eye, a perky nose, thin lips, and a finely-formed chin. His stature denotes a classic warrior's pose, however it could also be indicative of a craftsman or a builder. Traces of original white and pink pigment suggest this panel was at one time decorated with vivid colors. Custom museum-quality display stand included. Size: 2.75" W x 4.8" H (7 cm x 12.2 cm); 5.3" H (13.5 cm) on included custom stand.
Provenance: private East Coast, USA collection; ex-Richard Wagner collection, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA, acquired in the 1960s
