Visual Summary

Brief Description

Relief sculpture of a feathered figure holding a bow and plants, seated on a large reptile

Detailed Description

The artwork is a monochrome relief sculpture in an earthy reddish-brown hue. A central, bare-chested figure with a feathered headdress and a prominent medallion necklace is positioned diagonally across the composition, rising from the lower left towards the upper right. The figure's left arm is raised, holding a simple bow, while the right arm cradles a large bundle of long, leafy stalks, resembling corn or wheat, which fan out to the right. The figure wears a skirt-like garment and is seated upon a large, reptilian creature, possibly an alligator or crocodile, whose head with an open mouth is visible on the lower left. The creature's body is partially obscured by swirling, cloud-like forms or drapery. The background is a textured, flat surface, providing a uniform backdrop for the raised figures.
