MIMBRES BLACK-ON-WHITE BOWL, NEW MEXICO
The late Gene Lang of Denver purchased this 9 ¾” wide prehistoric Indian bowl (GL591) from the Chris Robinson collection (Chris, according to Lang, played a major part in a TV soap opera). Typed as a Mimbres Black-on-White and dating c.975-1150AD, the bowl is attributed to the Mogollon sub-group and was originally found in New Mexico. Glued together with minor restoration, the bowl has a ‘kill’ hole in its bottom center. With a reverse image geometric design, the bowl displays very nicely, although there has been some weakening of the black pigment. The bowl comes with a small display card, a grapevine ring to set the bowl upon, a release certificate stating that the bowl is not in violation of any laws, and a brief biographical write-up about Gene Lang.
