EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable jade figurine, believed to depict a child from the Olmec civilization. The Olmecs, known for their unique artistic style and cultural contributions, often portrayed adults with childlike features in their artwork. This particular piece originates from Cerro de las Mesas in Veracruz, Mexico. The intricate craftsmanship of this sculpture is evident as every delicate detail is captured in stunning color. Its vertical composition adds to its visual impact, drawing the viewer's attention towards the figure's expressive form. Displayed at an anthropology museum in Mexico City, this artifact serves as a testament to the rich heritage and ancient civilizations that once thrived in Central America. Dating back to the Formative Period between 1200-300 BC, this jade figurine holds immense historical significance. It offers valuable insights into the culture and beliefs of the Olmec people who resided in Mesoamerica during that time. Although much about this sculpture remains unknown - including its creator - it stands as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing work of pre-Columbian art by Santiago Ortega, we are reminded of our connection to those who came before us and left behind such extraordinary legacies.
