This print showcases a remarkable ceramic jar adorned with interlocking-stepped motifs in a striking diagonal pattern. Created between the 10th and 13th centuries, this exquisite piece of ancestral art embodies the rich heritage of Native American culture. The unknown creator skillfully crafted this earthenware container using traditional techniques, infusing it with both beauty and functionality. The geometric design, meticulously painted in black pigment on a white background, captivates viewers with its intricate precision.
