African Dogon Tribal Bronze Figure “Mother with Child" Burkina Faso, 1970s
Located in Salzburg, AT
Fantastique African Dogon tribal bronze figure “Mother with Child,” Burkina Faso, 1970s The heavy figure shows a dynamic representation of a mother in motion with her toddler in her arms. The object is so appealing because it has been elongated and the legs, arms, and headdress are exaggerated. The ribbed headdress is central, and there are also large earrings and a loincloth. The casting is very detailed and finely crafted. Due to its weight and size, we have mounted the object on an acrylic base. Dimensions of the figure: W 18cm x D 6cm x H 69cm Bronze figures associated with the Dogon people mainly originate from Mali and Burkina Faso. The Dogon are known for their cosmogony and religious rituals, which are reflected in their art. Dogon bronzes...
