Description
This wonderful lady sits quietly, yet her gestures express a sort of agitation that she is feeling. The beautiful simplicity of her unadorned, nude torso, allows us to focus directly on the upper body, her hand and facial expressions. Her eyes are partially closed, as if she is in a meditative state. This wonderful pre-classic female figure used in funerary ritual is made of fired hollow clay. She is adorned with Jalisco cultural traits, symbolism. And values. - (PF.1456A)
