| This oil painting by California artist, Juan Coronado,
is painted after a Chimu gold ear ornament. The ornament featured
semi-precious stones and depicts a Chimu warrior with tongue extended
and the trophy head of a recent victim. The Chimu empire existed from
1000 - 1470 A.D. until they were conquered by the Incas. The Chimu
culture was sophisticated, with many highly-accomplished architectural
works, and artifacts, including Pre-Colombian gold artifacts such as
the earrings this painting was inspired by. |
