EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a seated joined couple from 200 B. C to 300 AD. Crafted with ceramic and pigment, this ancient artifact showcases the remarkable talent and creativity of Nayarit. Standing at a height of 34.9 cm, it is currently housed in The Art Institute of Chicago, IL, USA as a generous gift from Ethel and Julian Goldsmith. The figures depicted in this sculpture exude an air of love and intimacy. Dressed in intricate costumes that reflect their tribal origins, the female figure stands out with her beautifully painted dress while her male counterpart complements her attire with his own unique style. Their joined hands symbolize unity and connection, reminding us of the enduring power of love throughout history. As we gaze upon this pre-Columbian masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era where art served as a medium for storytelling and cultural expression. This statuette not only represents the artistic prowess of its creator but also provides valuable insights into ancient Mesoamerican civilization. With piercing eyes that seem to hold secrets untold, these figurines captivate our imagination and invite us to ponder their story. They serve as a testament to the rich heritage and traditions that have shaped Central American culture over centuries. This print by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this precious artifact without commercial intentions or restrictions on its use. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries when it comes to inspiring awe and fascination
