顶级非洲艺术拍卖（Montagut画廊）

这个令人毛骨悚然的形象蜷缩着，腿抱在胸前，头部垂在膝盖上。 
它同时暗示着焦虑的纠结与深度祈祷的崇高专注。 
大约在七百多年前，在现今马里的内陆尼日尔三角洲地区创作，这件优雅作品的强烈情感即时性模糊了时空边界。 
这座陶土雕塑来自一个名为詹内-杰诺的遗址，非洲撒哈拉以南最古老的已知城市。 
詹内-杰诺在公元九世纪繁荣，但在公元1400年左右衰落并被遗弃。 
铸铜制品、锻铁制品、黏土器皿和人像！

This haunting figure huddles with its leg hugged to its chest and its head dropped on its knee. It simultaneously suggests the knotted tension of anxiety and the sublime absorption of deep prayer. Created over 700 years ago, in the Inland Niger Delta region of present-day Mali, this elegant work's intense emotional immediacy blurs the boundaries of time and place.

This terracotta sculpture comes from a site called Jenne-jeno, the oldest known city in sub-Saharan Africa. Jenne-jeno flourished in the ninth century A.D., but declined and was abandoned by 1400. Items of cast brass and forged iron, clay vessels, and figures!

Provenance: Jean - Michel Huguenin, Paris
