- Tanım
- Two joining fragments of figurine. Only two legs extant, belonging to a cloven-hoofed ungulate, probably a camel. Long, straight, tubular legs, with two projecting dewclaws at back near the hoof, and larger, rounded protrusions, possibly knees, on the opposite side. The hooves, which were modeled up from a thin rectangular base, are cloven, as indicated by painted detail. The base has three pairs of parallel, circular piercings: two pairs flank the legs on the exterior; one pair lies in between but is not centered. Red and white paint on reserved ground. Legs are red, while hooves are white, with silhouette delineated in red. Only the left hoof seems to have a cleft, also in red; might be the result of dripping paint from above (evidence of dripping paint elsewhere on the base). The right leg has a thin, white, horizontal line below the “knee”; could also be extraneous. The base was left in reserve. Handmade and solid. The legs were rolled into tubes; other elements were modeled separately. [entry by Frances Gallart Marqués]
