This small ceramic jar, created by the Inca people sometime between 1450 and 1532, is a stunning example of their artistic skill. The jar is decorated with intricate geometric patterns and stylized birds in black and white slip on a red background, highlighting the artistic talent of the Inca potters. This piece, now housed in The Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Inca civilization and their mastery of pottery.
