EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Luba Ceremonial Cane from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Crafted by Congolese artisans, this exquisite piece is made of wood and brass, measuring an impressive 136 cm in length. The cane's handle is adorned with intricate geometric panels on both sides, complemented by coiled brass wires that add a touch of elegance to its design. Atop the handle sits a seated female figure, her hands delicately supporting her chest. The rounded belly of the figure is adorned with scarifications, while a protruding navel and a large bun at the back of her skull complete her striking appearance. This ceremonial cane represents not only the artistic mastery of its creators but also holds great cultural significance within the Luba community. It serves as both an emblematic symbol and functional tool during important rituals and ceremonies. Captured beautifully in this photograph by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, every detail and nuance of this extraordinary artifact comes to life.
