Description

Very Beautiful Large (15" tall) and Heavy Vintage Mexican Folk Vase by Arnulfo Vazquez. Arnulfo Vazquez is a master artisan in the pre-Hispanic pottery technique known as barro brunido. One of the most notable features of barro brunido is how the pieces are painted in colorful, playful designs. These designs pair flora and fauna with complex geometric shapes, pre-Hispanic borders, and abstract themes including the mythical Nagual (a human who can transform into an animal, often a jaguar). Farmers tending their crops, seasonal celebrations, and observances of life and death are also among the subjects depicted. Arnulfo is son to the famous Salvador Vasquez. He has worked under the supervision of his father since he was a young boy. Today, Arnulfo is considered one of the important artists working in Tonala. SIGNED IN THE BOTTOM.
