拍品描述
Western New Mexico, United States, late 19th to early 20th century. Of classic form, the compressed globular body gently tapering toward the foot, with high-angled shoulders rising to a short, slightly waisted neck terminating in a broad mouth. The exterior vividly painted with an abstracted pair of parrots, their bodies articulated with geometric patterning, accompanied by stylized fruit-like forms rendered in orange and dark brown. The scene framed above and below by thin double-line bands set against an earthy ground, while the lower portion of the vessel covered overall in a bright orange slip. The interior left unglazed, revealing the natural buff-colored ceramic body beneath.Provenance: The Collection of Sam and Myrna Myers, Paris, France. Acquired between circa 1965-2012.Condition: Very good condition with surface wear and inherent firing irregularities. Distinct traces of weathering and signs of usage. Light rubbing and flaking to pigments. Few minute nicks and minor nibbling along the upper rim. Weight: 885.6 gDimensions: Height 16.5 cm, Diameter 20.5 cmBird imagery on Acoma Pueblo pottery has been a prominent feature since prehistoric times. Early representations were predominantly abstract rather than naturalistic, attaining a notable apex in the Sikyatki polychrome tradition of the Hopi, dated approximately between 1375 and 1650. The representational parrot motif exemplified on Acoma vessels such as the present lot emerged in the mid-nineteenth century and has remained largely consistent, exhibiting minimal influence from non-indigenous sources. Within traditional Pueblo cosmology, birds and feathers are intimately associated with supplications for rain and agricultural fertility.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related polychrome 'parrot' pottery jar, Acoma Pueblo, late 19th century to early 20th century, from the private collection of Aby Warburg, in the Museum am Rothenbaum.
