| Description |
There is something timeless and eternal about
such figures, evocations of the quintessential
female. Though this charming example reflects
the style and tastes of ancient America, she
might just as well have been formed in Egypt, or
Mesopotamia, or Africa at some point centuries
earlier or later. Simple in form, she is
nonetheless complex in intent, a figure of lasting
beauty and mystery.
