Statuette presenting a female figure seated on an initiate's seat with one foot. The hands are placed on the tips of the breasts and symbolize a nurturing gesture.
The head is slightly turned and the arched ears frame a face built around an arrow-shaped nose.
The spine is marked by a vertical zigzag line and refers to the Dogon exodus.
The mix of beautiful craftsmanship and the marks of the past allow this statue to send back a very nice emotion.
The base has been slightly sawn off, I think when it was put on a pedestal.
Wood, old erosion and patina of time.
