Descripción : rare and fine example with raised stylized female image on a rough hewn panel. The whole pigmented in black and white, on a custom base. : Dr. Arthur P. Bourgeois, world expert on the Kwilu-Kwango region has written this about this example: The Hungaan people used carved panel doors on a thatched structure where a sick person was being treated. Doors such as this depicted in relief a kitekki, or charm figure, that was given a personal name and likely served an apotropaic and protective function. Similar doors have been collected among their Pindi and Mbala neighbors. The motif, however, is a highly conventionalized example of the displayed female motif in which a figure is shown with splayed bent legs, exposing the genital area. This is a fine rare and authentic example.
