Περιγραφή από τον πωλητή
Baule Statue, Bouaké Region, Ivory Coast, wood with a dark patina; Central Ivory Coast, Bouaké Region.
This female figure is a classic example of Baule sculpture, representing an Akan-speaking population of central Ivory Coast. The Bouaké region is one of the most important centers of Baule culture and has produced numerous sculptures that embody ideal beauty, spiritual harmony, and social perfection. Such figures were often associated with ancestor worship, private shrines, or the concept of the blolo—spiritual companions from the afterlife.
The sculpture is characterized by a balanced composition and a remarkable sense of inner peace. The crown-like wreath of hair, which transitions into a braid at the back of the head, lends the head a dignified grandeur and reflects the high cultural significance of elaborate hairstyles within Baule society. The closed eyes and sealed mouth convey a state of contemplative focus, while three small raised areas between the arched eyebrows and radiating marks at the outer corners of the eyes are reminiscent of ritual scarification.
The ornamental articulation of the body is particularly characteristic. Ribbed patterns adorn the neck, chest, abdomen, and lower back, creating a rhythmic connection between the individual body zones. Thin cords around the neck and hips suggest jewelry or status symbols. The arms held close to the body and the hands resting on the lower abdomen emphasize the figure's closed form and draw the eye to its central axis.
The strong, relatively short legs lend the figure stability. Breakage on the right foot and signs of wear document age and use, underscoring the work's historical authenticity.
