EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Stirrup Spout Vessel Depicting Runners, dating back to 100 B. C. - A. D. 500, created by an unknown artist. The vessel is part of the Arts of the Americas collection and can be found at the Art Institute of Chicago. The image captures a close-up view of this remarkable ceramic piece, highlighting its intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship. The vessel's cream-colored surface is adorned with delicate pigments that bring to life scenes of runners in action. In this ancient Peruvian artwork, we witness men engaged in running activities, their bodies outlined with precision and grace. The spouted container features a stirrup-shaped handle on one side, adding both functionality and aesthetic appeal. This artifact offers us a glimpse into South America's rich cultural heritage during the early intermediate period. It represents the artistic prowess and technical skill possessed by pre-Columbian civilizations like Moche or Mochica. As we contemplate this stunning work of art, we are transported back in time to an era where ceramics were not merely utilitarian objects but also vessels for storytelling and expression. The print allows us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this historical artifact from our own homes or offices while honoring its origins as part of Peru's artistic legacy.
