Standing at a height of 20.3 cm, this ceramic masterpiece is housed in the prestigious American Museum of Natural History in New York, USA. The photograph showcases the remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating this ancient artifact. The figure's stylized face and mesmerizing patterns draw you in, inviting you to explore its rich history and cultural significance. As you gaze at the image, your eyes are immediately drawn to the removable front of the figure. This feature hints at its purpose - possibly serving as a burial or funerary object, symbolizing an important ritual or belief within Teotihuacan culture. The naivety captured in this piece adds an element of charm and authenticity.
