Peter Brooke
Mayan Warrior

1998

About the Item

Provenance Acquired by the gallery directly from the artist Description Peter Brooke's Mayan Warrior depicts a solemn and dignified military subject. Historically, few Mayan warriors wore helmets because of the scarcity of metal. Rather, they wore elaborate wooden and cloth headdresses that represented the animal spirit or “way” of the warrior. Hair style was also a way in which the warrior could denote his rank in society. Only the elites, such as the warrior captains, sported their long, flowing locks in ponytails. Exhibitions California Art Club's nonprofit booth at LA Art Show at LA Convention Center, January 2 - 25, 2009

  • The Lingering Shadows
    By Alicia Ponzio
    Located in Pasadena, CA
    Provenance Acquired by American Legacy Fine Arts directly from the artist Description The Lingering Shadows is a small-scale, bronze figurative composition involving three female figures arranged on a strong diagonal that arcs upward from a horizontal oval base. The base, made of Belgian marble, is pure black and has a similar quality to still water reflecting moonlight. The figures are grouped to suggest that two of them are excluding the third and mocking her, while the pose of the third figure reveals her emotional response to the situation. The placement of the two grouped figures is higher on the diagonal arc, describing the power gradient between the figures.
