Description from the seller

Statuette, Guro culture, Côte d’Ivoire. H. 35 cm

Beautiful Guro statuette from Côte d’Ivoire. It is a lively work that captivates our gaze in an instant. It radiates an ancient and mysterious inner strength. The expression on the face is stern, severe, and focused. Her pose conveys confidence. She seems ready to move. Beautiful hairstyle with two braids. Ancient beads adorn her neck. She is covered in bright, aged red paint. The patina is superb. A beautiful, authentic antique collector’s piece. Circa 1950.
