Product description
Impressive handmade bronze sculpture from Nigeria, purchased in 2004. This unique art object is made of bronze, weighs more than 20 kg and has a height of no less than 84 cm - an extraordinary size that immediately catches the eye.
The style and finish allude to the rich traditions of Yoruba or Benin art, known for their detailed portrait art with royal or spiritual symbolism. The high headdress, expressive facial features and refined decorations make this statue a powerful statement piece for any interior, gallery or art collection.
The sculpture is largely hollow cast (as is common with larger bronze sculptures), but very solidly made. The weight and finish emphasize the craftsmanship with which this work was made.
