EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two seated figures from Nosara, Nicoya, dating back to the years 800-1100. Crafted out of ceramic, these Mesoamerican figurines are a testament to the rich ancient history of the region. Standing at 31cm and 35cm high respectively, each figure exudes a sense of grace and mystery. The intricate patterns painted on these terracotta clay artifacts add an extra layer of beauty and complexity. Decorated with stylized designs that reflect Central American culture, they serve as a window into the artistic traditions of their time. These ornate statuettes offer us a glimpse into pre-Columbian life in Costa Rica. Their presence is not only aesthetically pleasing but also holds historical significance. As we admire their craftsmanship, we can't help but wonder about the stories behind them - who were they made for? What purpose did they serve? Photographed by Dirk Bakker with meticulous attention to detail, this image captures every curve and contour of these precious relics. Preserved in a private collection today, these figurines continue to fascinate art enthusiasts around the world. Through this photograph's lens, we are transported back in time to appreciate the mastery and creativity that existed centuries ago in Mesoamerica. It serves as a reminder that even though civilizations may fade away over time, their artistic legacy endures forever.
