Statue(s) (1) - Wood - Maternity - Pende
Ex. private collection - Paris - France, Circa mid 20th century Size: 90x25x17 cm, Weight: 4. 0kg Beautiful maternity from the Pende ethnic people, in good condition. Hard wood Always beautiful, African maternities remain astonishing, because unlike Western mother / child themes in which a relationship seems established between the mother and her child, in the case of African maternities, the two characters seem "dissociated". No strong gaze of the mother on her child, no filial gesture. Such statues are assimilated to the sacred and religious domains and will find their place on an altar. To be collected on site - NO SHIPPING Can be delivered if buyer in Belgium
