Dyrefigur, en bronsekunst fra Benin, tilhører Edo-folket, provenance Manfred Schäfer-samlingen.
Beskrivelse fra selgeren
Beautiful bronze animal from Benin. Benin bronzes are probably the most famous bronzes of African art, in front of the Ifé and Owo craftsmanships. This is due to the proximity with the Atlantic coast, which enabled trades with the Portuguese since the 15th century.
Wonderful pair of Benin leopards in bronze. For the Benin people, the leopard is a mighty and powerful royal animal, which rules the savanna as the king rules over his people. It also serves as a symbol of justice.
Provenance: Manfred Schäfer collection, ex- gallery owner from Ulm, Germany.
Shipping within 24 hours after the payment is received. Tracking number will be provided. Signature upon delivery. Fully insured.
