EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic "Standing Figure with Long Hair" sculpture, believed to have been created between the years 1000 and 1500 in Costa Rica. The stone figure stands at a modest size of 18.4x12.1 cm but exudes an undeniable presence that captivates all who lay eyes upon it. The figure's most striking feature is its long flowing hair, cascading down its back in intricate detail. This mesmerizing depiction of hair symbolizes vitality and power, hinting at the significance this figure held within its cultural context. Housed within the prestigious North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, USA, this artwork serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Costa Rica and its ancient civilizations. Donated by Dr. Clifton F. Mountain and Mrs. Marilyn T. Mountain, this piece holds immense historical value. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a time long past - to the Atlantic watershed region where this sculpture originated from - envisioning the faceless yet expressive countenance that once graced these lands. With every curve and contour meticulously carved into stone by skilled hands centuries ago, we are reminded of humanity's timeless pursuit for self-expression through artistry. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites us to explore our connection with ancient cultures and their profound impact on our world today.
