Here comes the sun--a smiling metal sun, composed of brass facial features riveted to a bronze face, with hand-welded copper rod rays all around. A welded-on ring to hang it with. This piece is likely from the workshops of the Emaús Benedictine monks, near Cuernavaca, MX. Active during the 1960s, these monks designed many secular and religious pieces, including some medals for the 1968 Summer Olympics, held in Mexico City. The trend toward abstraction seen in their works tracked with the mid-60s changes in the Catholic Church, and also influenced art and architecture in Mexico. Though unsigned, we believe this to be a genuine work from the monastery. Dimensions: 13"D X 1"H Pickup category timeslot {A}
