One item that interested me was the 'kangaroo ica stones' found in a museum in Peru. One shows a 3/4 view of a kangaroo with a joey looking out of the pouch. I do not know much about art history, but are there any other examples of 3/4 views of objects from this area and period? It seems to me it's a bit like finding a typed Dead Sea scroll. |
Manufacture of the Ica stones began in the 1960s. So yes, there are quite a few other examples of 3/4 views of objects from this area and period. |
I didn't think to check on Wikipedia (my excuse is I was in a hurry) but that also explains why I thought that the images looked very clear. The original item on RAE, of course, implied that they were old.
