MUSEUM QUALITY ART ISMAEL LOYA This beautiful, bowl-shaped pot was made by Ismael Loya of that famous family of potters from the village of Mata Ortiz in northern Mexico. He formed this exquisite pot with the local white clay and painted very original designs in black and terra-cotta on a matte finish. The geometrics in the designs are imaginative and flawless--the amount of artistry on this is compelling. The "olla" is amazingly thin-walled--the mark of a mature potter. It is signed and measures 6" high and is 8" wide.

I am pleased to be able to make this art read more
