Description

A kneeling wooden sculpture of a person holding a bowl. The figure is carved from a dark, aged wood, possibly hardwood. The figure is kneeling on a textured base, with one knee on the ground and the other leg bent. The person’s face has simple features, and the body is stylized. The bowl is held in front of the figure. The wood shows signs of age and wear, with some cracks, a piece broken off and discoloration, suggesting it is an older piece. The condition appears to be fair, with some signs of age and possible minor damage. 

  • Similar works often function as symbolic thrones in certain African cultures, embodying ancestral memory and spiritual authority.
