This is one of the pieces like this on the market.

Enamel is bright with no chips, cracks, or crazing. See the edge photos.

This is a vintage enamel by Mexican artist Miguel Pineda, from his series based on the Codex Borgia, one of the few pre-Columbian Mesoamerican manuscripts that survive. "Sol Muerto" shows the Dead Sun in rich orange, red, black and gold, with raised outlines between the colors. It's mounted on a black wood board, ready to hang.

Hand-signed "Miguel Pineda" in white on the mount, lower left. The original bilingual Spanish/English label on the back explains the codex imagery.

Size: Board " 10x10", enamel " 7x6 1/2 "

Condition: Enamel excellent.

Board shows light edge wear, some scuff marks, scrape on the back (see pictures) ask if you would like specific ones.

Hanger is present.

It would suit a collection of Mexican modernist, pre-Columbian-inspired or mid-century art, and it stands out on a wall.
