Colorful oval anthropomorphic pottery - Bonn Collection of the Americas

On a colorful oval pottery in the Bonn Collection in the Americas, there is a human figure sitting on it with legs crossed. This image is depicted on a black body with a white face, holding a musical instrument or corn in the hand. The main body is decorated with geometric patterns on both sides of the character, consisting of deep stripes and light reddish brown dotted triangles, which are alternately surrounded by red stripes and black lines. At the bottom of the character, an element is drawn as an oblique black line, forming a mesh like pattern. The origin of this pottery is unknown and belongs to Teddy Hahn's collection.
