Where is the artwork in the picture from - the Near East? Does Samuel Merrin offer it at the gallery?
Actually, that is a pre-Columbian piece which has been sold. But it's a very interesting one and you can find more information on the Merrin Gallery's website, which also refers to some publications you could check out.
