An adventurous 1970s style painting of explorers in Mayan ruins encountering a magical statuette emitting blue energy.

Earl Norem painting, circa 1970. The setting is Mayan ruins in the Yucatan peninsula. A distinguished college professor, wearing a safari suit and smoking a briar pipe, looks nonplussed in the right middle ground. Beside him stands an auburn-haired young woman, 24 years old, wearing a safari jacket and jodhpurs and holding an SLR camera. In the left foreground, a middle-aged government agent contorts in pain as he is blasted with mystical energy emanating from an Olmec statuette in the center foreground. In the far background, native porters flee through the jungle. Mehr sehen
