Beschreibung : West Africa, Ivory Coast, Senufo people, ca. early to mid 20th century CE. A large, wonderfully rendered wooden carving of a lion, an animal who lived in the region as recently as the 20th century and may have been observed in the wild by the artist who made the piece. The lion is seated, with its haunches, tail, and long back legs in high relief against its long torso. The front legs extend in front of its body, as does its head, which features a very long snout, large eyes, and raised, round ears that rise at an angle from the back of the head. The animal's dramatic mane is incised around the neck and down the shoulders and front of the torso, giving it a magnificent appearance. Size: 31.5 L x 9 W x 11.75 H (80 cm x 22.9 cm x 29.8 cm) The Senufo people include a number of diverse subgroups who migrated into their current region from the north in the 15th and 16th centuries, since then, they have remained relatively sheltered from other cultures and have preserved a very distinctive artistic style. Specialized artisans make all Senufo art, which often focuses on ancestors and animal/nature spirits.
