Diana Le Marbe Corn Maiden 2010 — Signed Handcrafted Ceramic Mosaic Tile

Evocative handcrafted ceramic and mosaic tile artwork titled Corn Maiden by New Mexico artist Diana Le Marbe, created and signed in 2010. The piece depicts a stylized figure representing the Corn Maiden — a traditional Southwestern symbol of abundance, renewal, and sustenance. Le Marbe’s composition combines earthy ochres, deep blues, and vibrant reds within a geometric mosaic pattern, giving the piece both texture and dimension. The figure’s cloaked form and intricate detailing are highlighted by glossy glazes set against a matte tan background, framed neatly in solid wood.

Le Marbe, a New Mexico-based ceramicist known for her culturally inspired designs, draws upon regional folklore and natural motifs in her work. This tile, both sculptural and decorative, reflects her dedication to craftsmanship and storytelling through clay. Suitable for wall display or as a freestanding art piece, it embodies the warmth and spirit of the Southwest.
