This lively fellow beats a small drum held under his arm. His legs are bent as he moves to the rhythm of his music. At first we think he alone can hear what makes him dance, but if we listen carefully, we too begin to sway with the beat. « Less

Olmecoid Sculpture of a Seated Woman - PF.0535, Origin: Morelos, Mexico, Circa: 1100 BC to 500 BC, Dimensions: 9.75" (24.8cm) high, Catalogue: V2, Collection: Pre-Columbian, More »
Olmecoid Sculpture of a Seated Woman - PF.0535, Origin: Morelos, Mexico, Circa: 1100 BC to 500 BC, Dimensions: 9.75" (24.8cm) high, Catalogue: V2, Collection: Pre-Columbian, Style: Olmecoid, Medium: Terracotta. There is more to this dark-red woman than meets the eye, but she does not reveal her secrets all at once. There is something naive and childlike about her abbreviated limbs and surprised expression, and yet she simultaneously projects a very sophisticated sexuality. As with all true sex symbols, her appeal lies in the balance of innocence and awareness. The minute we focus on one of these qualities, our attention is drawn to the other. « Less

Olmec Sculpture of a Standing Figure - PF.0538, Origin: Las Bocas, Mexico, Circa: 1150 BC to 550 BC, Dimensions: 5.5" (14.0cm) high, Catalogue: V2, Collection: Pre-Columbian, Style: Olmec, Medium: Terracotta. Though this small Olmec figure has been elegantly sculpted, it is his mouth--shown open in an expression of awe--that focuses our attention. What has caused him to react this way? Is he observing the wonders of the temporal world or does his vision extend to something beyond, invisible to the rest of us? « Less

There is an amazing amount of character in this exquisite, small piece. From his seated position, the nude man looks upward, as if appealing to some higher force. With his left arm he gestures towards himself. What does he wish for? Happiness? Wealth? Perhaps he is asking for a long life, which is certainly what the gods have granted him. « Less

This nubile young woman with the gap between her teeth appears to be whistling. She wears a slight look of annoyance, as if someone has told her that this is not a ladylike pastime, which has made her more determined to master it. « Less

Four figures hover expectantly on the outer rim of this vessel; directly in front of each is a hollow depression formed by one of the legs. In the center a man wearing a tall pyramidal hat waves his arms as if engaged in a ceremony. There is an air of anticipation about this piece, a feeling that some peculiar ritual is about to reach its high point. If we turn away for even a moment, we might miss the climax. « Less
