A lovely doll woven in cotton and camelid fibers, wearing a long dress, the lower half decorated with a band of repeated abstract mirror-image faces in beige and white hues, with layered 'ruffles' in ochre, pink, and red hues, her head presenting an expressive visage comprised of wide open eyes, a protruding nose, and toothy grimace, with woven red and tan face paint or tattoos and openwork scarification marks, hair down the nape of her neck, and loom stick limbs. Custom stand. Size: 12.75" H (32.4 cm)Most of the purportedly "ancient" Peruvian dolls on the market are in fact made in contemporary times, only comprised of collected ancient textile fragments.

A fabulous example that displays exceptional skill and technique, intriguing for its dramatic, meticulously detailed visage, skillfully delineated long fingers and toes, and ornately decorated vestment.

Lot 2
Egypt, Middle Kingdom, ca. 2050 to 1640 BCE. A white, molded faience figure of a standing woman wearing a high-necked shift dress that falls to her ankles and a large wig of straight hair. Size: 2.6" W x 11.5" H (6.6 cm x 29.2 cm)She stands facing forward on a small square plinth. Her torso and head are well proportioned and graceful, but her feet, arms, and hands in particular are too large for her body. Middle Kingdom sculpture often emphasized hands and feet; when originally painted, this statue probably had fingernails and toenails. During the Middle Kingdom, we see statues of women who are portrayed very similarly to this one - small breasts and the symmetrical face with the large wig, all beauty standards of the time - and we have intepreted those as being commissioned by wealthy, private women patrons who commissioned flattering portraits of themselves.This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) and has been found to be ancient, and will be accompanied by a report confirming its age. A figure very similar in body shape but made of wood is on display at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore. Provenance: Ex-Private FL collection Condition: Repaired just above knees, with signs of wear and pitting to stone over most of the surface. . All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.

Nice remains of red, white, and blue pigments. Custom stand. Size: 7.875" H (20 cm); 8.875" H (22.5 cm) on standIsis is oftentimes depicted in a sheath dress, but in this example the artist elected to depict her in the nude, revealing the ideal of Egyptian womanhood with all her feminine grace. Isis was daughter to Geb, god of the Earth, and Nut, goddess of the Sky, and wife of Osiris. Oftentimes shown as the mother of Horus, she is also known as a protector of children. In addition to being revered as the ideal mother and wife, Isis was revered as the patroness of magic and nature, a supporter of sinners, slaves, and artisans as well as a friend to rulers and the wealthy.
