Hearst Museum object titled Jar, accession number 2-73354, described as Polychrome ceramic Jar, San Ildefonso Pueblo, by Martina Vigil and Florenttino Montoya, 1910. Dealer's description: "San Ildefonso polychrome olla slipped all the way to the base, c. 1920, and in excellent condition. This fine jar, with its delicate swirled design descending all the way to the bottom of the slipped base, shows the final stage of development of the San Ildefonso polychrome style. The rim is both flared out and decorated inside, the black framing line that was once found at the shoulder is now a polished red band in the middle of the jar, and the design is as advanced and sophisticated in its abstraction as classical Minoan pottery. What a loss to our understanding of the history of pueblo pottery that the maker is still unidentified. It measures 9" height and 10" diameter.
