Michoacan Pottery Anthropomorphic Storage Jar

Item Details

Description

**First Time At Auction**

Pre-Columbian, West Mexico, Michoacan area, ca. 800 to 1200 CE. An intriguing pottery jar of a tall, wide form used for storing grains or other substances. The vessel is defined by a rounded base stabilized with a pair of attenuated feet, a bulbous ovoid body with a rounded shoulder, a thin rim, and a deep interior cavity. An abstract anthropomorphic visage graces the front of the jar with coffee-bean-shaped eyes and full lips surrounded by a crescent-rimmed headdress, and the curved arms form a pair of usable handles. A ridged column along the verso is indicative of the figure's spine, and swaths of intricate geometric motifs in orange hues are presented atop a cream-hued ground. Size: 5.125" W x 6.7" H (13 cm x 17 cm).

Provenance: private Colorado, USA collection; ex-Artemis Gallery; ex-Dr. Richard Gill collection, Orlando, Florida, USA collection
