Item Details
Description
Pre-Columbian, Peru (North Coast), Moche Culture, ca. 100 to 700 CE. A large, mold-made pottery vessel in the form of a sweet, smiling sea lion. He has a well-rendered, naturalistic face capped by a stirrup and thin cylindrical spout; the attention to detail in the paint and form shows that the artist was familiar with these creatures and had probably observed them in the wild. Size: 6" W x 8.5" H (15.2 cm x 21.6 cm)

Provenance: Ex-Baker Collection, New Mexico
