Details

Walter Jose Acosta depicts a high-ranking woman of the Nazca culture of ancient Peru. Her robes reveal intricate geometric motifs, expertly handwoven by these pre-Inca people. Even more complex patterns border her finely-woven head covering, and she decorates her face with precise red dots. Crafted of terracotta, the image is masterfully painted by hand.

“Beautiful conversation piece”

I bought this as a gift for myself to always remember the birth of my daughter and the beauty of delivering with a midwife. Having this piece in my home creates an opportunity to share this history and my connection to the story it tells.
