该作品的收藏者:

The bird, the serpent and the feline were considered the main deities of the religious pantheon of Andean societies, and from the Cupisnique period on, symbolized the divine powers of the air, earth and the underworld. In their various manifestations, birds, whether as bird of prey, an owl or a duck, usually embodied the night, war and darkness, and acquired anthropomorphic or supernatural features according to the activity they performed. In the Early Mochica style, owls were usually depicted with pointy ears and tufts of feathers at the crown, with or without rectangular ears. This representation is a splendid example of a modeled owl with rectangular ears. (CD)

El ave, en sus diferentes manifestaciones, como ave de rapi?a, búho o pato, suele encarnar a la noche, a la guerra y a la oscuridad, y adquiere rasgos antropomorfos o sobrenaturales según la actividad que desempe?e. En el estilo Mochica Temprano los búhos son normalmente retratados con orejas puntiagudas y copetes de plumas en la parte superior de la cabeza, con orejas rectangulares y sin orejas. Esta representación es un ejemplo espléndido de un búho modelado con orejas rectangulares. (CD)
