EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Stirrup-spout vessel in the form of a temple, dating back to the Early Horizon period between 900-200 BC. Crafted by the skilled artisans of the Cupisnique culture, this ceramic masterpiece measures 28.3x21x12.2 cm and is currently housed at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. The vessel's intricate design resembles an ancient temple, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of South America during that era. Its detailed carvings and meticulous craftsmanship transport viewers back in time to explore Peru's pre-Columbian history. The Nora and John Wise Collection generously gifted this artifact to the museum, with contributions from Mr. and Mrs. Jake L. Hamon, The Eugene McDermott Family, Mr. and Mrs. Algur H. Meadows and The Meadows Foundation Incorporated, as well as Mr. and Mrs. John D. Murchison. As one gazes upon this extraordinary piece, they are transported into a world where temples served as sacred spaces for worship or ceremonial rituals—a testament to human creativity throughout history. This photograph not only captures its aesthetic beauty but also preserves its historical significance for future generations to appreciate Peruvian artistry at its finest.
