Songye nkisi figure, Democratic Republic of the Congo
20.5" tall
Wood, horn, copper, pigment


$700

An expressive figure in nice form with a worn patina to the wood. You can't easily tell from the photographs, but the eyes are inset copper.

Despite its appearance, I believe this object was made specifically for the collecting market.
