Descrizione : Western Africa, Ghana, Fante (Fanti) peoples, ca. mid-20th century CE. A hand-carved female figure standing nude atop delineated legs. The woman presents with conical breasts, rigid arms draped down her sides, dark pigment on her blocky feet, nipples, and coiffure, and a narrow neckline. Her enlarged head features slit-form eyes and mouth, a petite nose, a massive butt with a deep cleft, and large, pierced ears, all beneath a backswept hairdo. This figure perhaps represents a deceased ancestor, and figures like this were kept inside the home or a personal shrine as a physical memory of that deceased individual.
