LOOKING FOR A UNIQUE AFRICAN ARTWORK FOR YOUR HOME, OFFICE OR A GIFT FOR SOMEONE WHO WILL APPRECIATE IT? ARE YOU A COLLECTOR OF WEST AFRICAN ART? LOOKING FOR A WOODCARVING WITH MUSICIAN FOR A WALL? This is a loving example of West African wood carving of a charming girl playing a stringed instrument. The exaggeration of curves on the instrument & figure gives an interpretation of both movement (as in dance and rhythm) and sensuality of youth. This unsigned piece is made from a flat surface of mahogany that was carved by a hand skilled in the genre stylized art. Also, the rich ebony color is reflective of the beauty of the African race. The dimensions are: 11/16" x12 1/4" x 27 7/16" and it weighs 6 3/4 lbs. I've owned this beauty for over 20 years now having purchased it from an African merchant in New York and sadly have to part with it as I prepare to move . Pros: Great condition, beautiful piece Nice medium size with some weight to it. Impressive concept and composition. This art piece adds class & sophistication to a wall space. Cons: I added a couple of eyescrews and picture frame wiring to the back to add more support during hanging.
