Consulter la cote et le prix de Nazca Polychrome Sitting Venus Figure, 2004

Description : Pre-Columbian, South Coast Peru, Nazca culture, ca. 200 to 600 CE. A stunning ceramic female Venus figure of an exceedingly rare size. The nude figure presents seated upon slender legs with delineated genitalia in-between, a rotund abdomen perhaps indicative of pregnancy, petite breasts, sinuous arms draped from prominent shoulders, and a wide neck. The elongated head exhibits an enormous nose, black eyes with white-painted sclera, a narrow chin beneath a painted mouth, and protruding ovoid ears under the pinched forehead and black coiffure. High burnishing marks provide a textured canvas for the orange-slipped ground, and traces of black, white, red, and yellow pigment add an attractive aesthetic. An extremely rare example of Nazca figurative artistry! Size: 7.3 W x 13.1 H (18.5 cm x 33.3 cm), 14 H (35.6 cm) on included custom stand.
