Nayarit Sculpture of a Standing Woman - PF.2675 Origin: Western Mexico Circa: 300
BC
to 300
AD Dimensions:8" (20.3cm) high x 5" (12.7cm) wide Collection: Pre-Columbian Medium: Terracotta
Standing as the gods themselves might have
stood, this female figure is a study in refinement
and aristocratic bearing. Her clothing and
elaborate jewelry tell us she was a well
respected, if not powerful figure. She is
composed of simple, yet elegant lines that any
collector will cherish.
