Sitting character with arms raised - Dogon - Mali

Julien Gauthier
Expert

Selected by Julien Gauthier
Statuette - Dogon - Bois - Mali - 47 cm. Personnage masculin assis sur son banc. Il s'agit d'un homme nu, âgé et barbu qui se tient les bras hauts à la manière des Tellem. Certainement en signe de prière pour implorer la pluie et aussi en respect à Amma, le dieu Dogon. Le visage montre des traces d'usure, l'ombilic est saillant, les bras et mains aplatis en plaque. L'ensemble montre une patine très sombre. Provient de la région de Douenza.
