Olmec Blackware Vessel in the Form of a Bird - PF.2380, Origin: Las Bocas, Mexico, Circa: 900 BC to 500 BC, Dimensions: 6.125" (15.6cm) high, Collection: Pre-Columbian, More »
Olmec Blackware Vessel in the Form of a Bird - PF.2380, Origin: Las Bocas, Mexico, Circa: 900 BC to 500 BC, Dimensions: 6.125" (15.6cm) high, Collection: Pre-Columbian, Style: Olmec, Medium: Terracotta. Birds and particularly waterfowl were considered one of the most significant animals to the ancient Olmec. The association with migration and versatility on both land and water may have been one of the reasons for this reverence. Nowhere is this veneration more touchingly expressed than in this beautiful Olmec vessel. Here, the softly rounded body of the bird gives way to an elegant neck and head that form the vessel's spout. A gently curved opening at the top of the vessel dips down to create a tuft of feathers atop the bird's delicate head. Stylized wings, artistically sculpted, wrap around the bird's body while a small upturned tail completes the perfect balance of proportion. If we listen closely while gazing at this evocative work of art, we can hear the ancient call of these migratory birds, haunting in their age-old ability to capture our hearts and souls. « Less

Olmecoid Sculpture of a Seated Figure - PF.2585, Origin: Morelos, Mexico, Circa: 1150 BC to 550 BC, Dimensions: 8" (20.3cm) high, Collection: Pre-Columbian, Style: Olmecoid, More »
Olmecoid Sculpture of a Seated Figure - PF.2585, Origin: Morelos, Mexico, Circa: 1150 BC to 550 BC, Dimensions: 8" (20.3cm) high, Collection: Pre-Columbian, Style: Olmecoid, Medium: Terracotta. The state of Morelos is located in the Mexican highlands, south of the valley of Mexico. Warm and even subtropical during the middle pre- classic period, this region may well have proved attractive to the famous Olmec people who lived to the southeast. The Olmec were a fighting people, as evidenced by their many monuments depicting battles. Whether they actually invaded Morelos is unclear, however, what is known for certain is that their presence was made in this region of central Mexico. This fact is attested to by the distinctive ceramics that appear from Morelos during this time period. Here, we see one such remarkable piece, presented in the form of a seated figure. The distinguishing Olmec features include the somewhat puffy, infantile features of the figure as well as the shape of the head, with its pierced slanted eyes and downward turned mouth. Seated, with hands resting on outstretched legs, and a dramatic vent hole positioned at the navel, this ceramic figure exudes a spirited energy that is characteristic of Olmec-type ceramics. A mastery of form combines with an imaginative portrayal to give us a work of art that is a dramatic manifestation of the interaction of cultures, whether they be friend or foe. « Less

This fired solid clay figure was used as a ritual offering in a funerary practice. Her pre-classic features such as the triangular, flat face, Asiatic eyes, large ears, and teeth are rendered with bold incision marks. Her large and gentle features reveal a personable and honest disposition. Most of the details and decorations on the figure are marked with incision lines, for example the headdress, ears, and eyes. The left side of the body is enhanced with line and dot pattern incision. This pattern suggests that decorating skin with tattoo, paint, or scarification was a common practice in Morelos society. The clay figure also shows the importance of fertility-life and regeneration. The fertility. Not only was the charming clay figure used for a ritual but it also embodies the fertility concept, which was cherished by many cultures throughout the ages. « Less
