Description
BAMANA, Mali. Hardwood, with a dark brown patina from wear. A rare monoxyl stool with two levels, the circular seat supported by four figures of ancestors depicted standing with their arms raised. Here, the ancestor is no longer merely depicted, but becomes a pillar, a structural element, symbolically fulfilling a supporting function. Early 20th century. H. 45.5 cm (minor damage and losses).
