Terracotta Figure of a Man in the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, June 2018
Figure of a Man (Primary Title)
Unknown (Artist)
Date: AD 200 - 600
Culture: Remojadas
Category: Ceramics
Sculpture
Medium: terracotta
Collection: Pre-Columbian Art
Geography: Mexico
Dimensions: Overall: 13 × 10 1/4 × 3 in. (33.02 × 26.035 × 7.62 cm)
Object Number: 59.16.5
This figure is a typical example of the Remojadas style of sculpture from the Gulf Coast area of Veracruz, Mexico. The exaggerated gestures and clothing suggest that it is a dancing shaman or ceremonial participant. The distinctive smiling face probably indicates an altered state of consciousness, such as a trance.
