Jaina-style male figurine

3D Model

Modeled clay figurine representing a standing man with legs apart and arms crossed in front in a solemn posture. He wears a skirt decorated with traces of Maya blue pigment, a color associated with the sacred and the celestial in the Mesoamerican worldview. The figure features an elaborate headdress, with hair tied upward, and a necklace made of large beads. Although the face shows signs of wear, the posture, jewelry, and headdress suggest that he is a young man of high social status. The style corresponds to the Jaina figurines, known for their technical refinement and expressiveness. This piece forms a pair with No. 1.2.179.123, suggesting a shared narrative or contextual relationship.
