MERINA STATUE, Antanosy (?), Madagascar - Lot 5
MERINA STATUE, Antanosy (?), Madagascar Hard wood with glossy patina, pigments, accidents and missing parts. H. 40.5 cm Effigy representing a probable stretcher bearer, hands closed in the prolongation of the body, the waist girded with a short loincloth and a musette. Different registers of sculpture indicate a careful execution: suspension link of a medicine horn incised in the hard wood; salt shakers and navel flush with the surface of the body. The slightly oversized face opens up to a large gaze. Beautiful quality of sculpture.
