Statuette ancienne, culture Akan Fanti, Ghana. H.28cm

Belle statuette Akan ou Fanti du Ghana. Le visage est émouvant et expressif. Elle nous regarde avec amour, force et compassion. Le sculpteur à réussi a nous faire passer une émotion. L'ensemble est bien équilibré, harmonieux. La position est étrange, les jambes fléchis, les bras ballant et le dos rond. On y perçoit presque une position simiesque. Une oeuvre rare. Superbe patine lisse et brillante, le bois est ancien. Vendu en l'état, voir photos. Une belle pièce de collection authentique. Circa 1950.

Provenance :
- Collection privée, Allemagne.
- Collection privé, Toulouse, France.
