Sacrificer Container

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Sacrificer Container by depicts a reddish-brown stone sculpture of a figure with a large head and small body. The figure has a wide, flat head with a patterned design on top and a face with a large mouth, sharp teeth, and a prominent snout. The eyes are relatively small. The figure's body is squatting with arms bent at the elbow and hands clasped in front. The arms and legs have patterned designs. The background of the image is dark at the top and lightens towards the bottom, with a shadow cast by the sculpture on the right side.
