Rebozo 1960

"Rebozo" is a handwoven shawl from 1960 by Maya, currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art. The vibrant, striped design is a traditional textile pattern, featuring white embroidery depicting stylized birds, flowers, and other botanical elements. These motifs are common in Mexican folk art and reflect the rich cultural heritage of the region. This rebozo, measuring 68 x 41 inches (172.72 x 104.14 cm) with fringe, exemplifies the craftsmanship and artistic skill of Maya, showcasing the beauty and tradition of textile art.
