EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient South American art known as "Kero" dating back to the late 16th to mid-18th century. Crafted from wood, metal, and paint, this ceremonial cup stands at an impressive height of 15.4 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. The Kero holds significant cultural and historical value as it represents the Post-Conquest Inca period. Used for ceremonial purposes, this intricately designed cup played a vital role in traditional Incan rituals. Its exquisite craftsmanship reflects the artistic prowess and attention to detail prevalent during that era. The Nora and John Wise Collection generously gifted this extraordinary artifact to the museum through contributions from Mr. and Mrs. Jake L. Hamon, the Eugene McDermott Family, Mr. and Mrs. Algur H. Meadows, The Meadows Foundation Incorporated, as well as Mr. and Mrs. John D Murchison. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this stunning artwork with their expert photography skills while preserving its authenticity and allure for generations to come. As we gaze upon this photograph print of the Kero cup by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness a glimpse of South America's rich heritage—a testament to human creativity transcending centuries.
