EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from late 19th to early 20th century Central Africa. The half-figure, originating from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and created by the Luba people, is an exquisite representation of their artistic prowess. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this wooden sculpture stands at an impressive height of 22.4 cm (8 13/16 in). Adorned with vibrant cloth and intricate beadwork, it exudes a sense of cultural richness and spiritual significance. The enigmatic expression on the figure's face invites us into a world shrouded in mystery and tradition. Its presence evokes curiosity about its purpose within Luba society - perhaps it served as a guardian or symbolized ancestral connections. As we admire this masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness the skillful craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations. Each stroke of wood carving reveals the artist's dedication to preserving their heritage. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this half-figure offers us a glimpse into Central African history and culture. It serves as a tangible reminder of our shared human experience across continents and centuries. Through this print from Liszt Collection, we have the privilege to appreciate not only the beauty but also the profound meaning behind this extraordinary work of art.
