Couple of Lobi figures - SOLD OUT

Exceptional objects in African art

Couple of Lobi figures standing. The statuary of the Volta region in West Africa is well known for its protective statues and deep theology.

These old pieces are among the finest achievements of Lobi art. Faces and headdresses are typified. Here, the arms are dangling along the body. Beautiful old and slightly worn patina.

These pieces come from an important collection of Belgian African art composed mainly of statues and statuettes from Côte d'Ivoire and Congo.
