View translationJalisco, Western Mexico Terracotta Musician Figure. 200 BC. - 200 AD. 30 cm H. TL TEST. Spanish Export License.
No. 89514765
Figure of a musician with scraper or omichicahuaztli.
- Thermoluminescence Test -
CULTURE: Jalisco, Western Mexico
PERIOD: 200 BC. - 200 AD
MATERIAL: Terracotta
DIMENSIONS: 30 cm height and 28 cm length.
PROVENANCE: Private collection of Napa, California, United States. With spanish import license.
CONDITION: Intact, perfect condition, only the little finger of the left foot is broken and glued.
DESCRIPTION:
The cultures that developed in this area, as well as in the states of Jalisco and Nayarit between the years 200 B.C. and 600 A.D., are considered part of the same cultural current due to the connections and similarities in their funeral practices, for example, their shaft tombs and their artistic production, especially their pottery.
The cultures of the west of Mexico stand out above other pre-Columbian cultures for their vast production of ceramics of unequalled quality and variety. These pieces were to form part of the grave goods of a deceased person, and it is for this reason that they have been found almost exclusively in tombs. This factor has been decisive for their conservation up to the present time, and has meant that they are practically all intact and looking much as when they were originally produced.
The spectrum of types and motives represented in the ceramics of the cultures of Colima, Nayarit and Jalisco is very wide. The pieces have been of great use in widening knowledge of the traditions and practices of these Mesoamerican peoples.
Notes:
- The piece includes authenticity certificate.
- The piece includes Spanish Export License.
- The seller guarantees that he acquired this piece according to all national and international laws related to the ownership of cultural property. Provenance statement seen by Catawiki.
