About the Item
Immerse yourself in the artistry of the Chancay civilization with this extraordinary 12th-14th century handwoven and knotted textile. Echoing the mastery of a culture known for its intricate craftsmanship, this textile showcases several enigmatic figures interwoven with fish, capturing the essence of Chancay life along the coastal region of ancient Peru.
Mounted on a silk-wrapped stretcher, this textile is not merely a relic, but a gateway to the Chancay people's profound reverence for textiles as an art form and cultural expression. Just as textiles played a pivotal role in the Chancay society, this piece speaks of their remarkable weaving skills, intricacy, and vibrant imagination.
