Quimbaya Pottery Seated Slab Figure Nude Male

Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Colombia, Quimbaya, ca. 1200 to 1400 CE. A peaceful pottery figure displaying characteristic Quimbaya features of a rectangular, slab-like body, tubular limbs, and a tranquil countenance of slit-form eyes, a straight mouth, and a projecting nose. Posed expressively, the seated figure bends one arm upward as though making an oration. Though he is depicted nude with a prominent, protruding phallus, the grooves on his arms and legs indicate he was once adorned with bangles and anklets. The piercings on his forehead and body suggest he was once decorated with additional ornaments as well. Slab figures, like this example, were included with ceramic vessels and metal ornaments as offerings in burials in shaft and chamber tombs. They may have been considered guardians or companions for the deceased. Size: 6.3" W x 6.9" H (16 cm x 17.5 cm)

Provenance: private Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA collection, via descent from a Winnipeg, Canada collection, acquired in Ecuador circa the 1960s
