Black iron statuette of Pais Lobi. Second half S.XX

In the Lobi society ( Burkina Faso, West Africa), next to the entrance of the house, a small altar is erected where libations are offered to the spirits of the family. These are represented by small statues that are in turn protectors of the family and the home..

The treatment not very detailed and the simplicity in the features are a characteristic trait of this tribe.

This mounted warrior on horseback is a fine example of Lobi artistic expression.

Measures: 27 cm de largo x 20 cm alto.

Unique piece.
