Description
My late father left this Mayan staue to me. He was a prolific artist, and during the late '50s and early '60s he repaired some statuary for some collectors and institutions. This Mayan staue has a broken off foot, and that is why I assume he had it. I have no idea where he got it from. The foot-- still detached-- fits back perfectly so that it's hard to tell it was ever broken.
The tag on the bottom reads:
post classic
1000-1400AD
1963, Zacalpa
Guatemala
I would like to sell this piece, so I would greatly appreciate this community's appraisal of the worth of this statue, and possibly pointing me toward the best market or forum for selling pieces like this.
Thank you,
Mac Roseborough
