Wide-Mouthed Vase c. 20th century

This "Wide-Mouthed Vase" is a striking example of Woyo ceramic art, created sometime in the 20th century. The vessel's rounded form and wide mouth are typical of Woyo pottery, often used for storage or ceremonial purposes. The artist, whose identity remains unknown, has meticulously carved intricate geometric patterns across the surface of the vase, highlighting the skill and artistry of Woyo potters. This piece, now housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcases the rich artistic traditions of the Woyo people in contemporary art.
