Dimitri André

Excelente Nkisi Songye Janus. Procedente de subastas Zemanek, colección privada, anteriormente expuesto por Laeremans, también en Parcours des Mondes. 
Buena pátina profunda aceitosa, complementos habituales de los Songye. 

NOTA: la publicación original en Zemanek aparece sin el cuerno ¿? Al parecer posteriormente se añadió. No es propiamente una restauración porque la escultura no se ha tocado. Es habitual en estos objetos los cuernos añadidos, por otra parte es fácil de eliminar si se desea.
