Description : African art. Ivory Coast - Baulè. Female sculpture. Hardwood with thick posthumous varnish. Visible defects and signs of use. With plexiglass base.. The great quality of carving of this Baulè female sculpture, probably from the colonial period as suggested by the presence of demure shorts, is evident from observing the masterfully proportioned body, the sweetly and expressively corseted face and the elaborate yet elegant hairstyle of the hair. Dignifiedly young and ineluctably covered entirely in thick, greasy black paint, this Baule sculpture retains the charm and beauty typical of the great Baulé sculpture and rightly deserves the appellation of a work of art.. Cm 7,00 x 33,00 x 8,00.
