Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

Very large Bambara statue from Mali symbolizes abundance (strong shell chest) of harvests or livestock, honesty with open hands facing forward (I have nothing to hide). The statue is very minimalist which gives it a lot of strength and modernity, with superb cubist lines and shapes, a masterpiece of the genre. Note the beautiful black-brown patina due to the palm oil anointings, the forged nails for the eyes, the geometric patterns on the torso and back which are the scarifications.
Considering the size and quality it is probably a chieftaincy statue, a notable.
Height 107 cm, hardwood weight 13 kg.
