Peter Reynaers

An Indus Valley red terracotta vase, decorated with the image of Bovine and a Fish. The animals are displayed in a simple and stylized way with large open eyes. A band of geometric motifs frame the animals depicted. 
The civilization of the Indus Valley stretched from what is now north-east Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India. It was one of the three early and widespread cradles of civilization, along with ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. At its peak, the Indus Valley civilization, including those of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, had a population of more than 5,000,000, which developed new techniques in pottery and artefacts.

Dimensions: 13.5 cm high, diam. 12 cm.
