卖家的描述
约鲁巴鼓手形象 - 科瓦拉地区,尼日利亚
Standing wooden figure shows a musician with a drum held across his body. The compact body rests on strong, carefully ornamented feet; Arms and hands embrace the cylindrical instrument, the surface of which is enlivened by geometric carvings. The face with large eyes, prominent eyelids and incised cheek marks is precisely worked out. A monumental, two-part tower with six almond-shaped openings rises above the head. The warm reddish-brown patina and fine signs of wear give the sculpture a calm, material density.
Musicians and especially drummers form a recurring motif in Yoruba carving. The origin from Kwara State leads to northern Yorubaland, particularly to the cultural area of the Igbomina and Ilorin. Drums have much more than musical significance within Yoruba society: certain instruments can imitate the tonal structure of the Yoruba language and accompany festivals, religious ceremonies and public performances. The unusual head attachment of the present figure is likely to increase its representative significance; However, a concrete assignment to a deity, society or specific ceremony cannot be guaranteed without documented provenance.
