An ancient stone sculpture of a seated figure with crossed legs and hands resting on its knees is displayed on a wooden platform in a museum. The figure has a wide, toothy grin, large circular ear adornments, and a bulging abdomen. A heavy, ornate stone vessel sits atop its head. The sculpture is positioned against a textured red wall, with shadows cast by lighting. A small informational plaque is visible to the right of the sculpture. This artwork, identified as the "Vesuvian Vessel" or "Vase of Tezcatlipoca," is housed in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City, Mexico.
