- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, North Coast Peru, Moche III to IV, ca. 400 to 600 CE. A wonderful mold-formed redware vessel with a flat base, a wide body depicting the portrait of a male warrior, a plateaued shoulder which doubles as the top of the warrior's head, an arching stirrup-shaped handle, and a tubular spout. The stylized warrior visage is expertly formed and defined by recessed almond eyes, a prominent nose, pursed lips, and a rounded chin, all framed with a raised helmet and chinstrap. His coiffure flows down the back of his neck with two bulbs of hair just behind his cheeks. The highly-burnished vessel is covered in an orange-red slip with some brown/black areas caused by fire-darkening. Size: 4.8" W x 10.125" H (12.2 cm x 25.7 cm).
Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-private collection of Dr. Saul Tuttman & Dr. Gregory Siskind, New York, New York, USA
