Description: |
White Mountain redware Four Mile polychrome jar with bilaterally symmetrical butterflies on the body of the vessel and bands around the neck. In the traditions of Four Mile, Showlow and Kinishba, the focus of attention shifted from the bowl wall to the center of the bowl, with the use of large single motifs. Divisions of the field still existed and there was occasional repetition of like units or alternation of unlike units. Many pieces lack bilateral symmetry, as the field was divided into unlike areas, and the organization of the design frequently left out opposed similarly shaped units. Internal elaboration in motifs included parallel hatched elements, stepped line fillers, negative stepped units, dots and occasional patches of white paint. Geometric figures began to evolve into biomorphic forms, especially birds. White paint as well as black was used to form outlines or filler designs on the bowl interior. On the exterior, white motifs sometimes formed a band framed by wide black lines. Intact, exc. cond. A rare and high quality example. |
