EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable wooden headdress in the form of D'mba, a fertility goddess from the Baga culture in West Africa. Created during the late 19th to early 20th century, this exquisite piece stands at an impressive height of 125.1 centimeters and measures 41 by 70.3 centimeters in width. Displayed at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA, this headdress is part of The Gustave and Franyo Schindler Collection of African Sculpture, generously gifted by the McDermott Foundation in honor of Eugene McDermott. It represents not only a beautiful work of art but also holds significant cultural and anthropological value. The intricate carving on this headdress reflects the rich tradition and ritualistic practices associated with fertility deities within West African cultures. Its elaborate costume and detailed facial features bring forth a sense of mystique and reverence for these powerful goddesses. As we delve into its ethnographic significance, we are reminded that art serves as a window into different societies' beliefs and customs. This sculpture offers us insight into the spiritual world of the Baga people while simultaneously showcasing their exceptional craftsmanship. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we can appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical importance captured within this photograph print without forgetting to acknowledge its deeper cultural context.
