Descrizione : Superb Baule Ancestor Figure Ivory Coast H: 59 cm (approx. 1’ 11”) Estimated age: 19th century Compare: “Arts d’Afrique” Musee Dapper, plate 155 Provenance: Purchased by an Austrian collector at TEFAF 1994, Maastrich The Baule (also Baoulé) are an African people with a population of approx. one million mainly inhabiting central Ivory Coast. Baule art is sophisticated and stylistically diverse. The sculptor’s profession is not inherited, but is a personal choice. The Baule have various types of wooden sculptures and masks that allow for closer contact with the supernatural world. Baule statues usually stand on a base with the legs slightly bent, the hands resting on the abdomen in a gesture of peace, and elongated necks supporting a face with typically raised scarification and bulging eyes. The coiffure is always very detailed and is usually divided into plaits. Partly crusted patina.
