EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Colima figure, dating back to the period between 100 BC and 250 AD. Standing at an impressive height of 25.4 centimeters, this ancient artifact belongs to a private collection and is beautifully captured by eChristies Images. The figure exudes an air of contemplation and melancholy as it sits in a pensive posture, with folded arms and bent knees. Its reddish-brown color adds depth to its expression of loneliness and heartbreak. Seated alone in solitude, this statuette represents the profound sadness that can be felt even in ancient times. As we delve into the depths of history through pre-Columbian art, this Colima figure offers us a glimpse into the thoughts and emotions of individuals from Central America centuries ago. The tribal influence is evident in its design, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Mexico and Latin America. With no other person present in the frame, our attention is solely drawn towards this solitary object that seems lost in deep contemplation. This photograph captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes curiosity about the stories behind such ancient artifacts. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back to antiquity where we witness one person's introspection frozen in time—a testament to human nature's universal experience across different eras and cultures.
