Congo RDC
Hemba
Bois sur socle en bois
Hauteur : 350mm
Largeur : 110mm
Longueur : 120mm
Poids : 1230gr

Statue africaine de l'ethnie hemba du Congo RDC représentant une personne de haut rang, probablement un roi.

Les statues Hemba présentant des trous sur les côtés du visage et de la poitrine sont probablement des effigies rituelles ou ancestrales, où ces trous peuvent symboliser des scarifications, des orifices cérémoniels ou des éléments de purification, témoignant de leur importance spirituelle et culturelle dans la tradition Hemba.

Ce type de statue était utilisé pour le culte des ancêtres. Trous au niveau des oreilles.

Belle patine d'usage.
