Item Details

Description

Teotihuacan Priest Figure (250-450 AD)

The figure has strong vertical and horizontal planes, with narrow openings at the arms reminiscent of the M14 Mezcala figures from Guerrero. The broad face has large oval eyes and full lips slightly opened, indicating a lifelike but resolute demeanor. He wears the temple headdress with a crest as the sole permanent addition of clothing of rank.

The city of Teotihuacan was built on the natural alignment of the sacred mountains and caves in the area, further organized by the manmade grid that imposed uniformity along a directional axis. This designing principle applied to the stone art of the idealized masks, and symmetrical and formal figures such as this sculpture.
