Bowl Depicting Birds c. 180 - 500

This Nazca ceramic bowl, dating back to c. 180-500, is a beautiful example of the intricate artistry of the Nazca culture. The bowl is decorated with a band of stylized birds rendered in white, black, and red against a reddish-brown background. The bold geometric forms and vibrant colors are characteristic of Nazca ceramics. The bowl's small size and intricate design suggest it may have been a ceremonial object or used in a ritual context.
