>>4852785shut up and post (pictures of) sculptures retard
>>4852886the post says it's a statue/sculpture thread though, and only photos are being posted???/
>>4853142shut up nigger
>>4852385Did someone topple you for the crime of not being woke?
>>4852781nice bust. the statue ain't half bad either.
>>4854176Cool - looks like a 360° view of a skyline.
>>4854176this isn't a state/sculpture, it's a photo...
>>4852385this is clearly a photograph, not a statue or a sculpture. WTF???
>>4854176Neither a statue or a sculpture.
>>4860975I've heard of wooden sculptures though it does look more like a carving. I can't decide on statue. You can have a statue of a device like a computer, right? So that Stargate type thing could also qualify?
This thread need more Han dynasty.
>>4863295whats its name please?does anyone have a view from front/back?
>>4863514https://adamcalvertbentley.co.uk/product/tang-dynasty-style-terracotta-horse/apparently it's an imitation and not an artifact
Does this count or still carving?
>>4860614You just know...
>>4865983Crappiest fake "art" posted so far. It's so tacky that the trust fund art school kid was probably laughing constantly as he made it to support the fake "Indians" narrative.
>>4853142what do you expect the statues to pop out of your screen and land on your keyboard? retard
>>4867333Wanted to establish the floor of how low acceptable posting to this thread might be. Have a ceiling as apology!
>>4865983of course anon :)
>>4869738Classy! Nobody makes ceilings like this anymore, because reasons.
>>4865983make it's own thread and help push the virgin porn threads outta the way

Maya Stucco mask from Palenque, 300-850AD, Photo from the INAH. Proyecto de Digitalización de las Colecciones Arqueológicas del Museo Nacional de AntropologíaI thought this was a death mask of Kʼinich Janaabʼ Pakal/Pakal the Great, one of Palenque's most acclaimed kings like a few other famous Stucco masks/busts from the site, but I can't actually find that identification cited with this one so I think I just assumed wrong.---------Are you anons okay with ceramic sculptures/figures, engraved reliefs, or stone mosaics? Or do you wast to keep it to carved monolithic sculptures? I guess technically a stucco mask/bust is already not that, but it's less of a leap then the other things I'm asking about
>>4878450anything goes, bub :) thanks for the contribution
>>4876650Most likely Zeus.
>>4878450Aztec Statue of Coatlicue,~1500AD, Basalt, 257cm tall, from the Southeast portion of the Zocalo in Mexico City (IE: Formerly the Sacred Precinct of the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan). Currently housed at the Nacional Museo de Antropologia.Coatlicue is an earth and mother goddess, though also has traits (namely, the eyes/teeth on joints, and clawed hands/feet) associated with the destructive Tzitzimime star demons/goddessesThere's more I can say about the iconography and symbolism, but the thread is about to 404 and I don't want to take the time to type out a 4 paragraph explanation to risk that, so I'll refer people to https://smarthistory.org/coatlicue/ and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Annotated_Image_of_Coatlicue_Statue.jpg which cover most of what i'd be saying. There's a few small things I'd say it doesn't (such as the broader connection between earth goddesses and the tzitzimime, such as Tlatecuhtli), but the main thing is that the statue, like almost all examples of Mesoamerican sculptures, stone architecture, and higher quality ceramics, would have been richly painted. There's other sculptures where we have paint traces and can reconstruct the color scehemes, but I'm not sure if that's the case here
