A large and very rare decorated ancient pottery vessel having applied strap handles at neck to shoulder. From northern Peru, dating ca. 1000 - 1400 A.D., with a plump human figure sitting on the vessel neck with low relief features, modeled arms and tiny feet projecting, acting as the spout, this painted dark brown on a cream ground, rounded base and twin strap handles. 18-1/2"H, appears choice, but has a bit of rim roughness repaired and two invisibly repaired probe holes. Ex major New York auction house. A visually striking and cool example of Pre-Columbian art!
