- IMPRESSIVE MOCHICA POTTERY VESSEL, SMILING
IMPRESSIVE MOCHICA POTTERY VESSEL, SMILING DRUMMER**Originally Listed At $1200**
Pre-Columbian, Peru, Moche, ca. 400 CE. This is one enthusiastic percussionist! A finely rendered and quite sizeable polychrome terracotta spouted vessel in the form of a seated drummer with an expressive visage brandishing a nearly ear-to-ear toothy grin, wide-open almond-shaped eyes, a fleshy nose, and a generally happy countenance with incised wrinkles and deep naso-labial folds to indicate advanced age. The drummer wears a white cap or headscarf, a matching white garment, and holds the drum which is suspended from a shoulder strap across the torso in both hands upon the lap. A wonderful piece attesting to the Mochica people's love of music! Size: 8.375" W x 16.8" H (21.3 cm x 42.7 cm)
Provenance: private Hawaii, USA collection; ex-Dr. E. Fisher collection, Germany, 1950 to 1970
