Moche II Head Vessel

A fine 6-3/4" high Moche II "Small Man" vessel from Peru, ca. 100 – 200 AD. With this unusual type, the artist took the common Moche head and added diminutive legs to it, perhaps to represent a dwarf. The nicely molded facial features are enhanced by paint, including design elements most likely representing tears. Intact.
