VERACRUZ BASALT PALMA WARRIOR /VERACRUZ BASALT PALMA WARRIOR / LORD (FOR BALLGAME)Pre-Columbian, Mexico, Veracruz, ca. 550 to 950 CE. Hand-carved from volcanic rock palma in the form of a warrior or lord with a swirling motif surrounding. The shape fanning the back of the heads gives this form its name - a palma from the frond shape of palm trees. The athletes from Mesoamerica played a ballgame while wearing a hip yoke - the palma has a notched base potentially to rest on a yoke with a palma shape fan to protect their chests from the impact of the hard rubber balls. These carved stones are impossibly heavy - especially this hefty example, so this may have functioned as a court marker to determine borders or to keep score during the game. The rubber ballgame was regarded as a holy sport of religious significance. Playing this game was considered an act of worship to celebrate the sun's movement, and by extension the eternal cycle of life and death- the scrolling shapes around this figure symbolizes blood or vines. Size: 7.5" L x 4" W x 18" H (19 cm x 10.2 cm x 45.7 cm)
The Pre-Columbian ballgame originated in the first millennium BCE, most likely in the Valley of Mexico, and was regarded as not merely an athletic activity but rather as a ceremonial means of controlling or predicting the future. The ancients of Mesoamerica played ballgames in a sacred ballcourt space. Some cultures expected players to dedicate themselves to practicing the game and preparing for matches; however, other cultures forced war captives to play the game and sacrificed the losing team. Another custom involved using the possessions of onlookers as prizes for the victorious team.

VERACRUZ JANUS-HEADED STONE PALMA,VERACRUZ JANUS-HEADED STONE PALMA, EX-MESSICK**Originally Listed At $2000**
Pre-Columbian, Gulf Coast Mexico, Veracruz (Vera Cruz) culture, ca. 550 to 950 CE. Hand-carved from volcanic rock palma in the form of a stylized double-headed zoomorphic entity. Their separate chins rest on an integral plinth, but their left and right cheek join together, and they become one conjoined head. The creature or human form that the heads represent is somewhat mysterious; they mirror each other with open mouths, bulbous noses, and small indented eyes. The ears both appear to have large ear plugs, and a singular horn crowns both their brows. A three ridged palma rises up at the back of the heads. Almost gargoyle-like with their leering faces, a fascinating palma once used during Mesoamerican ballgames. Size: 4" W x 7" H (10.2 cm x 17.8 cm)
The shape fanning the back of the heads gives this form its name - a palma from the frond shape of palm trees. The athletes from Mesoamerica played a ballgame while wearing a hip yoke with a palma shape fan to protect their chests from the impact of the hard rubber balls. These carved stone statues often have the palma shape incorporated into their design, and were perhaps court markers to determine borders or to keep score during the game.

AFTER PALMA VECCHIO THE VIRGINAFTER PALMA VECCHIO THE VIRGIN AND CHILD OIL After Palma Vecchio (Jacopo Palma, Italian 1480 - 1520), "The Virgin and Child with St. John the Baptist and St. Catherine" a copy of the old master original at Dresden, signed on the verso "Albert Krafft in Dresden" and with label reading "The Countess of Bautig" now housed in a giltwood frame. Image: 25" H x 38" W Frame: 29" H x 40.5" W Note: Palma Vecchio (Palma the Elder), was called so to distinguish him from his great nephew Palma il Giovane (the younger). He was born at Serinalta near Bergamo in the Venetian Republic, and was a student of Giovanni Bellini, forming his style under the influence of both Giorgione and Titian. His work, "The Virgin and Child with St. John the Baptist and St. Catherine" was originally in the possession of the Pisani family at the Palazzo Pisani a Santo Stefano in Venice from which it was acquired by the dealer Guarienti and sold to the King of Saxony for the Royal Galleries at Dresden in 1749. The work remained in the galleries and was widely reproduced and copied throughout the 19th and early 20th century as a model of the Venetian School. The offered lot, a Dresden-made copy of the original likely painted from life, dates from the early 19th century. The original work survived the WW2 firebombing of Dresden and the subsequent Soviet occupation, and remains in the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden as Gal.-Nr. 188.
