Female figure with TL test. Colima- West Mexico (250 BC-400 AD).
The people of the area known as “western Mexico”, which covers the present states of Guanajuato, Michoacán, Jalisco, Nayarit, Colima, and Guerrero, used the pottery as a nearly exclusive means of artistic and religious expression. In the art of pottery they achieved surprising results placing them at an enviable level within the panorama of universal ceramics.
Individual statues and group scenes from Colima constitute a true documentary of the simple life of those villages. And within this incredible range of forms, the hollow and finely polychromed vessels and statues of Colima certainly represent a culminating point.
This female standing figure shows a pair of earrings, a small headdress and decoration with red painting.
Provenance: Ex private collection (south Germany; before 1982). Attached export certificate from Germany. Attached TL test (1983). Published in Seifert, Frauen nº 271/275.
