Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Southern Mexico to Guatemala, Maya Territories, Maya, Late Classic period, ca. 600 to 850 CE. A remarkable redware figure of a standing female adorned in red and black pigments. Capped by an elaborate headdress with a pair of downward-arching horns, the ancient figure gazes forward from heavy-lidded eyes beneath slender brows. Her sharp nose protrudes outwards, hovering above a pair of full, closed lips. She is dressed in a floor-length robe and holds both hands on her belly, as though signifying that she is with child. A large pectoral further adorns her upper body, accompanied by a beaded necklace and a sizeable pair of floral earspools. Size: 5.2" W x 8.9" H (13.2 cm x 22.6 cm)

Provenance: private Healy collection, Studio City, California, USA, acquired 1995 to 2015
