This print showcases a remarkable Mold for Male Figurine wearing Jewelry and Lobed Headdress, dating back to the 2nd to 5th centuries A. D. Originating from Peru, this pre-Columbian artifact is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of South America. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this terracotta figurine mold. The male figure is adorned with exquisite jewelry and an elaborate lobed headdress, reflecting the craftsmanship and attention to detail of its creator.
