    Description

    A Nazca-Huari Panel
    c. 600-1000 AD

    The iconography on this tapestry panel is strikingly similar to that of the sun elements from the lower section of the Gateway of the Sun at Tiahuanaco. The four heads radiating from the corners could be felines or serpents, both representative of strength, fertility, and shamanic transformation. Other symbols (feathers, chevrons, and floral motifs) also radiate along the sides. Just as in the gateway, the face of the sun has round eye sockets ensconced within a slightly diagonal bar ending in condor heads above, a path of tears below. Tapestry weave of camelid fibers in teal, olive, coral, gold cream, and brown colors. In excellent condition. Mounted to linen on stretcher bars.

    Provenance:
    Robert & Carolyn Nelson Collection
    David Bernstein Fine Art, New York, NY

    Note: See Ancient Peruvian Textiles, by Ferdinand Anton, Thames & Hudson, London, 1984, page 49.

    Dimensions: 5 x 8 inches
