EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the Colima Culture, dating back to approximately 100 BC-250 AD. The image captures an exquisite representation of a Colima Dog, a domestic animal that played a significant role in ancient Central American societies. Standing at an impressive height of 29.8cm, this decorative piece is currently held in a private collection. The photograph beautifully highlights the intricate details and artistic techniques employed by the skilled craftsmen of the time. With its front view and grinning expression, the dog exudes an air of playfulness and charm. Its seated posture and alert stance suggest an active and lively nature. The painted tribal patterns on the vessel carried by this adorable canine further enhance its cultural significance within pre-Columbian art. The brown color palette with reddish undertones adds warmth and depth to the overall composition. Through this studio shot, we are transported back in time to appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also gain insights into ancient civilizations' reverence for animals as companions or symbols of power. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured every aspect of this fascinating artifact, allowing us to marvel at its beauty while contemplating our shared human history with these loyal creatures.
