Descubra la tasación y los precios de esta y más obras de arte africano en Africartmarket. Large 20Th C. African Baule Figure, 1989



Descripción : African, Baule influence, 20th c. Sculpturally dramatic and powerful figure, with its rounded forms and sharply defined planes. Painstakingly carved details, most notably the coiffure and facial features. Exquisitely balanced forms with nice movement as well. Beautiful patina and impressive scale. Beyond this impeccable aesthetic is the iconographic value. According to Robbins and Nooter, Baule figures function in two principal ways: as the abode of a nature spirit before whom sacrifices are made, or as a representation of one's spouse in the spirit world, whose image must be enshrined and attended.
