卖家的描述
Attié Statue, Akoupé Region, Ivory Coast, wood with textile remnants; Southeast Ivory Coast, Akoupé Region.
This figure belongs to the artistic tradition of the Attié, an Akan-speaking population of the southeastern forest region of Ivory Coast. The Attié share numerous cultural and aesthetic characteristics with neighboring Akan societies, but developed their own distinct sculptural forms of expression, characterized by a combination of geometric reduction and symbolic condensation. Figures of this type were often associated with ancestor worship, fertility beliefs, and local cult practices.
The sculpture depicts a seated female figure holding a bowl on her head with both hands. This gesture alludes to notions of provision, fertility, and social responsibility that are associated with female roles in many societies of the forest zone of West Africa. A patterned headband and the ponytail structure the head and lend the figure a serene dignity.
The face is deliberately simplified. Knobby eyes, a narrow, straight nose, and a barely discernible mouth focus attention on the figure's overall effect. The grooved neck and the three-dimensional knobby ornaments on the abdomen and back rhythmically structure the surface, reminiscent of body ornaments or scarification. The pointed, protruding breasts and the central navel emphasize the figure's female identity.
The strong, knobby arms and legs are particularly characteristic, lending the figure a compact monumentality. The ornamented stool and the surviving loincloth further enhance the work's representative character. Damage and signs of wear document its age and ritual use.
