This striking hand-carved ethnic wooden sculpture depicts a kneeling female figure, sculpted with great attention to detail and enriched with ornamental bone or ivory inserts that embellish the face, chest and necklace. The proud posture and hand gesture recall a ritual or symbolic dimension, typical of traditional sub-Saharan African art.
The face is serene and concentrated, with half-closed eyes and marked features, while the elaborate hairstyle and body structure emphasize its totemic or ceremonial value. The signs of aging and the natural cracks in the wood reinforce its authentic character, testifying to the age of the work and its possible use in an original sacred or decorative context.
Perfect as a collector's piece or decorative element with a strong impact, this sculpture will be able to give depth and identity to any environment, whether modern or inspired by colonial or bohemian design.
