Julien Gauthier

Ghana
Culture Adan 
Statuette d'autel
Bois
H.48cm

Beau et grand personnage Adan du Ghana. Le traitement est minimaliste, les volumes sont simplifiés, mélangeant formes rondes et ovales à des parties plus droites et anguleuse. Le torse et un rectangle, le buste un tube et les hanches deux ovales allongés. Il n'a pas de bras. Le visage est beau, impassible, esquissant un sourire doux et rayonnant. Les oreilles sont signalés par des fentes en triangles. La statuette est recouverte de pigments rouge et blanc. Belle patine ancienne. Le bois est abimé au niveau des jambes, les pieds sont manquants, voir photos. Vendu en l'état. Un bel objet de collection ancien et authentique. Circa 1960.

Collection privée, Allemagne.
