Prehistoric Mimbres black on white pottery bowl. Designed with an all over tripartite geometric solid and fine line motif, two strap holes, restored. Exhibited: Decoding Mimbres Painting: Ancient Ceramics of the American Southwest, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, CA, May 20 - December 2, 2018. Illustrated: Berlant, Tony, and Mauer, Evan, Decoding Mimbres Painting: Ancient Ceramics of the American Southwest, Prestel Publishing, New York, in association with LACMA, 2018, p. 53. "By comparing this bowl with the vessel on the opposite page (note: with stylized depictions of two hawkmoths), we can recognize abstracted moths rotating around a white circle, which may represent both the datura blossom and the trance state portal. The design also bears a resemblance to the geometric patterns seen on the wings of the white-lined sphinx moth (Hyles lineata)."
