Created by the skilled artisans of the Costa Rican School, this unique piece is part of a private collection and has been beautifully captured by photographer Dirk Bakker. The vessel itself is an intriguing representation of a male figure, characterized by its robust form and exaggerated features. Its plumpness suggests an association with abundance and fertility, while also serving as a container for practical use. The craftsmanship displayed in this pottery exemplifies the mastery of Costa Rican artists during this period.
