In 1981 Vogel attributed a mother and child figure from the Paul and Ruth Tishman Collection to a workshop identified by her and located in the Agba area near Dimbokro (Vogel, 1981, p. 74). The workshop seems to have been most prolific and a number of different hands can be discerned among the figures it produced. Because of various characteristic features present sculpture can be attributed to this Agba area workshop (coiffure, scarifications, design of eyes, breasts and navel, leg rings). A figure which was designated as being from the Agba workshop as well was auctioned as lot 169 at the 85th Tribal Art Auction by Zemanek-Münster. AHDRC: 0139784 (comparable object) Continent: Africa
