Salinas Province New Mexico Gallery
This Tompiro ceiling panel has numerous exceptional images. In the upper middle is an anthropomorphic outline that appears almost childlike. Below this is a red, blue, and yellow mask with a white feather. To the right of this mask is another mask with a tall flame-like headdress and beneath this mask is a white, eerie anthropomorph with facial features appearing almost deathlike. Another mask with a red feathered headdress is in the right lower panel. The large serpent on the left is incomplete as are many other images probably due to the mud nests and natural cliff surface loss with time. |
