Funerary Urn

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a stone sculpture of a seated figure wearing a headdress. The sculpture is made of weathered stone, possibly clay or terra cotta, and features a figure with a large headdress on its head. The figure has a wide face with a neutral expression, and its arms are bent at the elbows with hands resting on its knees. It appears to be wearing a garment with designs on it. The headdress is large and ornate, featuring a sunburst design at the top with a face in the center. There are also decorative elements on either side of the headdress. The background of the image is a gradient that transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The overall atmosphere suggests that this is an archaeological artifact, possibly from an ancient civilization such as the Mixtec or Zapotec. The title of the piece is "Funerary Urn" by an unknown artist.
