Description from the seller
ナイジェリアのチャンバ族の大型で非常に重い古代アフリカ彫刻。
一本の木材を手彫りで刻んだ作品。
サイズ: 高さ約102 cm、重量は12 kgを超える。
チャンバ族は現在推定で約1万人から2万人の規模とされ、ベヌエ川の南、ナイジェリアとカメルーンの国境地帯に定住した。彼らは小規模で中央集権的な国家を形成した。首長には神権があり、臣民の生殺与奪の権を握っていた。各部族は祖先の頭蓋骨を保管し、血統の繁栄と豊穣を担っていた。
チャンバ族の彫刻の意味と機能については非常に少なくしか知られていない。
腰より低く配置された膝の上で、女性像と男性像が結ばれており、一組の脚を“共有”しているとされる。出典の一つによれば、これらの像は祖先や他の霊的力を示すものとされ、過去には病を退け災難を防ぐために用いられた可能性がある。
Seller's Story
A SUMMARY OF OUR AFRICA-GALLERY SELLING POLICIES.
Our Africa-gallery specialized in Ethiopian tribal art, collected and sell tribal used art from all over Africa and special from Ethiopia.
Our Gallery have a collection of authentic, original and traditional art from Africa. This collection including masks, statues, pottery, musical instruments, manuscripts, headrests and other antique, primitive art and various unusual items.
I hardly ever buy directly from Africa. All my items that I sell are old and (tribal) used. My objects come from European and American private collections, auction houses, fellow dealers and other collectors from around the world.
This site gives you an impression of our stock and activities. Authentic, museum quality African tribal art at wholesale prices
We strive to provide deeper public appreciation for high quality African art and to make it accessible to all collectors.
High quality masks, carvings, statues, fetishes, animal figures, ritual objects and bronzes displayed here will add beauty to any home and value to any collection.
In addition, an ever-growing demand for rapidly disappearing original African tribal art makes it a sound investment.
As long-time experienced collectors, we carefully select and authenticate every artifact. Shown here are original, high quality, hand-crafted pieces made of wood or bronze which can be yours at a fraction of gallery prices! Years of traditional use added distinction to many of them.
We guarantee the authenticity of every item and your complete satisfaction. We make every effort to research and document the history of each artifact.
In our gallery you will find a nice selection of our stock. If you find something that is not on the site, let us know. We always have a large stock of items that are not on our site.
