Description from the seller

Bronze statue - Dogon – Mali

This bronze statue is inspired by the art of the Dogon people, established mainly in the Bandiagara Cliff region of Mali. The Dogon are recognized for the richness of their artistic heritage, characterized by stylized representations, balanced forms and strong expressiveness. Their sculptural production testifies to a know-how transmitted through generations and occupies an important place in the history of African art.

Made of bronze, this sculpture presents harmonious volumes and carefully worked details that highlight the silhouette and the expression of the figure represented. The quality of the modelling and the fineness of the finish highlight the artisan's technical mastery, while the overall composition gives the work a remarkable visual presence. Both decorative and expressive, this statue illustrates the richness of Dogon artistic inspiration while integrating elegantly into a contemporary aesthetic.
