Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, South Coast Peru, Nazca, ca. 250 BCE to 125 CE. Full of personality, this human effigy vessel of a seated man with a quasi-cylindrical body and an ovoid head with a bridge spout handle joining the head to the back (the spout emerging from the head) is elaborately decorated with an avian-inspired chocolate brown headdress framing his face with abstract plumes that also trail down his back and a grand golden pectoral. While most of the details are painted in a polychrome scheme of chocolate brown, cream, russet red, and golden orange, the facial features are nicely modeled. Figural forms like this example are relatively rare in Nazca art. A special example indeed! Size: 5.25" W x 8.625" H (13.3 cm x 21.9 cm)
