Zabihi Collection Unusual Latin American Zapotec Tapestry

About the Item

Hand-dyed wool on cotton warp; A bold and expressive handwoven wool tapestry from the Zapotec weaving tradition of Teotitlán del Valle, Oaxaca. This piece features a stylized Mesoamerican figure rendered in vivid red and orange tones against a deep indigo ground, bordered in a rich crimson. The figure, possibly referencing a deity or a ceremonial scene, is depicted in a crouched posture holding a symbolic object, evoking motifs from pre-Columbian codices. Signed “XX” in the lower left, this piece is both a modern artistic interpretation and a continuation of centuries-old indigenous weaving techniques. A powerful visual statement, this tapestry is ideal as a wall hanging or floor covering for collectors of folk art and contemporary Latin American design. 3'5'' x 4'9''
