AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Nice Luba sculpture from Congo depicting a man with one leg bent and the other kneeled (bravo to the sculptor for the imagination) and whose hands are joined in front of him, which represents a moment of respect for the person who holds him.
Beautiful two-tone patina, small repairs to the arms, but barely visible and already present when I bought it.
A beautiful collection piece with no reserve.
