AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Ancient funerary post from Bongo tribe, South Sudan.
Dimensions: width: 26 cm. Height: 133.5 cm. Depth: 15 cm. Weight: 10.5 kilos.
Provenance and history of the piece:
collected on 1950 close to Jur river, Sudan, Bahr El Ghazal province, nowadays South Sudan, Western Bahr El Ghazal province, by comboni father Filiberto Giorgetti. Acquired by us with a bunch of other posts from South Sudan and a group of Bongo stones from Walter Giorgetti, relative of father Filiberto Giorgetti, on 2008.
Overall condition: the statue shows deep erosion due to many years of wind, strong sun, rain, white ants. The wood (mahogany) is very hard, solid and heavy. The bottom part (originally inserted in the ground) has been partly eroded by humidity, worms, white ants and insects in general. Minor cracks are located all over the surface, as well as many signs of erosion, but the statue is entire and well preserved and looks amazing. General wear is evident.
A professional invoice with a picture of the object, as well as the aforementioned description, will be delivered with the lot.
