- Lot Description
Native American, North America, Southwestern United States, Mimbres, ca. 1100 to 1150 CE. A captivating example of a coil-formed pottery bowl of a hemispherical form with a round but stable base, gradually expanding walls, and a thin rim that surrounds the deep basin. The basin surfaces are covered in classic black pigment atop the white ground and displays a pair of long-beaked sandhill cranes with enormous, triangular bodies bearing pairs of concentric stripes above miniscule legs. The center of the basin houses a huge triangular fish with a petite head and protruding fins, and the surrounding areas are decorated with black triangles and lines that coalesce in tight spirals in the middle. The overall shape of the birds' bodies suggest that they had just finished feasting on one of these grand fish, perhaps biting off more than they could swallow. A charming example of fine Anasazi artistry! Size: 9.1" L x 8" W x 4" H (23.1 cm x 20.3 cm x 10.2 cm)
Provenance: private California collection, Los Angeles, California, USA, 2018; ex-Outwest Ancient Artifacts, New Mexico, USA; ex-Frank Tatsch Estate collection, Silver City, New Mexico, USA, before 2002
