Illustration
Mythical beings are depicted on this bowl, a typical "late" Nazca vessel with a proliferous design. The subject is depicted in profile and there is a use of complex and repeated motifs. This artistic development preceded the decline of a discernible Nazca style, explained in terms of the increasing influence of the Wari civilization. From Nasca, Peru, 400-500 CE. (National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh, UK)
