Pibil Jaguar Handcrafted Antiqued Ceramic Jar Maya Art

Oscar Rodolfo Mendoza

(57)

Oscar Rodolfo Mendoza celebrates the art of the ancient Maya with the original design of this ceramic jar. Decorated with a jaguar's head on the lid and classic glyphs on the body, the jar is crafted by hand with the same ceramic techniques developed by the Maya Pibil people. Little is known about them, other than that the Pibil were a warrior and migrant community that came to El Salvador from Mexico. This jar is treated to achieve an antiqued look, featuring red and orange hues obtained from achiote seeds.

In 1901, a cat sculpture was discovered in the mansion of the Marquee of Apartado, just to the west of the principal temple of Tenochtitlan, the Aztec capital. Artisans from the Angel Cerón Artisan Association replicate the océlotl (ocelot or "little tiger"), associated with warriors. The original is thought to have received the hearts of sacrificial victims whose blood was necessary to feed the hungry sun.

Tezcatlipoca as a Jaguar Aztec Tezcatlipoca Jaguar Signed Ceramic Sculpture

Angel Ceron Artisan Association

(261)

The most important deity in the Aztec pantheon, Tezcatlipoca, or "Smoking Mirror," is also one of the oldest, first appearing during the pre-Mexica Teotihuacan era. He is the god of fertility, of the wind, of life, of maize and of agriculture, and is said to have taught humans how to measure time and create the calendar. He is considered the antagonist of Quetzalcoatl, yet in later accounts, Quetzalcoatl is described as the black Tezcatlipoca.

Working in polychrome ceramic, Angel Cerón depicts Tezcatlipoca as his nahual, or animal counterpart — a jaguar named Tepeyollotli.
