    I am not sure of the printing technique . No visible signature.
    Any suggestions on the origin?
    Thanks

    I am going to hazard a guess of stenciled, hand-painted, airbrushed in 2-steps?

    I cannot feel the work to know if it could be a print of the ^^same..?

    Are their any numberings or signatures that would be on a print?

    No numbering or siggy, unless under the mat.

    Could be a relief block print.
    I would guess meso-American.
    Are those initials in the lower right blue thingy?

    Hm, I did not pay attention to the lower right. It does say CVG.
    I wonder what is the connection between the blue masks and the green symbols in front of them.
    The mat is not leeching but even if it is, what this has to do with anything?

    Try searching Mayan bars and dots numeral glyphs and their corresponding head glyphs.

    Thanks a bunch. Seems like those kind of rubbings are selling cheap as they are modern but at least I learnt something new.
