EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive Colossal Head, a stone sculpture created by the Olmec civilization between 1200 BC and 200 BC. Standing at an astonishing height of 230 cm, this monumental piece can be found in San Lorenzo Tenochtitlan, a renowned Olmec ruin site located in Veracruz, Mexico. Carved out of basalt and weighing approximately 20 tons, the Colossal Head is a testament to the incredible craftsmanship and artistic abilities of the ancient Olmec people. Its imposing presence commands attention as it stands tall with dimensions measuring H:2.69 metres (8.8 ft), W:1.83 metres (6.0 ft), and Depth:1.05 metres (3.4 ft). The intricately carved face on this colossal sculpture exudes strength and power, reminiscent of a warrior from Mesoamerican cultures. Some even liken its shape to that of a football helmet due to its distinctive form. Discovered in 1946 by Matthew Stirling, this remarkable artifact offers us invaluable insights into the rich history and cultural heritage of pre-Columbian Mexico. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring image captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder's collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the magnificence of Olmec artistry and their profound impact on Mexican history.
