Description

It is a piece of folk art, possibly a reproduction, showcasing Mayan or Aztec influence. The sculpture is made of terracotta clay and features detailed, hand-painted colors. It depicts a seated figure holding what appears to be a writing instrument and a codex or book. The style and craftsmanship suggest it may originate from the mid-20th century. Such sculptures often represent deities, rulers, or figures from Mayan mythology and daily life. The yellow clay used is unique to northern Oaxaca and is ideal for molding. It is a collectible item, reflecting the artistic traditions of the Mayan civilization.
