Wooden Horseman – Dogon – Mali

This sculpture representing a rider on horseback is attributed to the artistic tradition of the Dogon, a people mainly established in the region of the Bandiagara Escarpment, in Mali. Carved in wood, it features a stylized equestrian figure, characteristic of Dogon sculptural expression. The treatment of volumes and the balance between the rider and his mount testify to the meticulous craftsmanship of the artisans of this region.

With its slender silhouette and strong sculptural presence, this piece naturally fits into an African art collection or a contemporary interior. It creates a harmonious dialogue between Dogon artistic heritage and a contemporary aesthetic, while constituting a unique collectible for aficionados of African art.
