A very high quality, large Protoclassic burnished terracotta Colima dog figure, from the Colima culture, dating to approximately 200 B.C. - 200 A.D.

Exhibiting a beautiful dark red colour. The plump beast stands on squat, bent legs, with large round pot-belly, short, erect tail, pricked ears, exposed teeth and with male genitalia modeled on the underside of the creature.  

These enigmatic figures were produced in what is now Mexico from the 3rd Century B.C. Dogs were considered to be useful on one's inevitable journey to the underworld and were therefore placed with the deceased as trusty companions.

Length: 15  1/2 inches.

Height: 10  1/2 inches

Condition: Excellent condition. Age related encrustation. Minor restorations, front, left leg reattached.

One of the finest examples of this well known ceramic type that we have seen.

Provenance: 

Ex Reputedly purchased by the previous owner in the late 1980's from Sotheby's New York.
