EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Male effigy pipe, dating back to the years 1100-1300. Crafted by the Mississippian culture, this banded slate masterpiece stands at a height of 9.3 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The photograph, skillfully captured by eDirk Bakker, allows us to admire every intricate detail of this pre-Columbian artifact. The male figure depicted in the pipe is carved with precision and expertise. With its squatting position and crouching posture, it exudes an anthropomorphic essence that connects us to ancient traditions and beliefs. This woodlands creation hails from North America during the Woodland Period when Native American art flourished. The stylized statuette represents not only a tangible piece of history but also serves as a testament to the artistic abilities of its creators. The sculpture's black hue adds depth and mystery to its appearance while emphasizing its significance within Native American culture. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we are transported back in time – witnessing the talent and creativity that thrived centuries ago. Dirk Bakker's expert photography captures every nuance of this stone carving, allowing us to appreciate it as both an archaeological treasure and an exquisite work of art.
