Huge Guerrero Green Stone Anthropomorphic Figure

Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Mexico, Guerrero region, Mezcala, ca. 300 to 100 BCE. A superb and exceptionally large anthropomorphic figure carved from a beautifully mottled, deep green hard stone, burnished to a lovely luster. The figure presents an endearing and somewhat modest pose with both arms extended to cover his or her genitals. This sculptural work shows appealing stylization of the figure's human physiognomy carved from an alluring deep, green speckled stone. The ancient artisans of this region were particularly adept at reducing the human body to simple, eloquent forms via a string cut technique. The result ironically appeals to a modernist taste for minimalism. Custom, museum-quality stand. Size: figure itself measures 5.25" W x 8" H (13.3 cm x 20.3 cm); 9.25" (23.5 cm) H on stand.

Provenance: From the estate collection of Helena and Ladislas Segy, NYC, acquired 1950s - 80s.

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
