This Veracruz dignitary believed to be a priest, is portrayed with a large head and chest made from buff-colored clay. He wears a wide-banded headdress secured with a chinstrap, his ears are adorned with sizable ear spools and a necklace featuring a prominent central pendant is around his neck. His exquisitely crafted face boasts classic Veracruz characteristics, including almond-shaped eyes, elegantly sloping brows, a distinguished long nose, and a slightly parted mouth. A sizable firing hole at the back suggests that this sculpture was originally a standalone statue rather than part of a larger relief. 

During the middle centuries of the first millennium, the artistically gifted Veracruzanos located on the Gulf Coast of Mexico created particularly inventive ceramic sculpture in varying styles. This piece is a beautiful example of the elegant high-end sculpture of the Veracruz elite.
