20th Century

3.625″ H x 4.625″ L x 3.25″ W

Hand Coiled from White Clay of a Man Playing a Drum Holding a Leather Drum Stick

From a Private Colorado Collection

In Very Good Condition

Joanne Trujillo’s work commonly includes storyteller dolls, and listings show her pieces around ~3.5″ tall (matching your size closely), often polychrome (multi-colored with black, red/brown, and cream slips). A drummer figure “not storyteller” would be a less common but related motif in Cochiti pottery, emphasizing ceremonial drumming (drums are culturally significant at Cochiti Pueblo).

Cochiti potters, including members of the Trujillo family (like Dorothy, Mary, and Leonard Trujillo), often made drummer figuresseated or standing males or females holding or playing a drumsometimes as standalone pieces or integrated with storyteller themes (e.g., a central figure with drum and children).
