Description from the seller
Statue of the Lega, carved in dense wood. Decorative
The figure is distinguished by its double face, a strong symbol of Lega initiatory thought: duality, transmission of knowledge and complementarity of forces. The prominant eyes, the decorative perforations and the stylization of the body testify to a mastered sculptural work, rich with meaning.
