Warrior Figurine with Shield

Cleveland Museum of Art

Terracotta figurine of a warrior with a shield. The figurine has a red-brown color with some white and gray patches, likely due to aging. The warrior has a curled and spiky hairstyle with a curved protrusion on top. The face features earrings, a mustache, and a goatee. The warrior wears a short skirt and a top with a circular shoulder piece. One hand holds a large rectangular shield with a ribbed edge; the other hand is raised. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The figurine's style and color are consistent with ancient Mesoamerican art.
