Descripción : Large African Museum Quality Chokwe Chief Figure (Mwanangana) | This figure depicts a Chokwe chief, or mwanangana, and epitomizes the balance of power and refinement characteristic of Chokwe court art. The hand-carved wood sculpture is smooth, redish-brown in color, and has a shiny patina that resulted from the repeated application of oil and dyes during ceremonies. The statue has the customary oversized hands and feet and a large Chipanya mutwe, a tri-lobed, upturned and flaring headdress, with two lateral wings. The chief holds what appears to be a flint-lock long gun, symbolizing the chief's aggressive traits and hunting prowess. The chief has scarification marks on face and forehead, and a beard of what appears to be horse hair. The figure is adorned with a leather belt and loin cloth, shouldered bag, and upper arm bracelets.
