Description from the seller
Very expressive bowl bearer figure from the Senufo people of Ivory Coast (Cote d’Ivoire). She is very well carved with the hallmarks of classic Senufo sculpture in terms of details and style. A bowl is balancing on her head.
Good condition.
The Senufo (the francophone spelling Senoufo is commonly used) are an ethnolinguistic group composed of diverse subgroups of Gur-speaking people living in an area spanning from southern Mali and the extreme western corner of Burkina Faso to Katiola in Côte d’Ivoire. In Bambara the word Senufo means “Dialect of the farmers;”and refers to an agricultural and pacifist people.
Provenance: Darmstadt (Germany).
