A Baule sculpture, Ivory Coast.
To articulate historians, the most consistent features of Baule art is a kind of peaceful containment. Faces tend to have downcast eyes and figures most often hold their ams against the body. […] Among their abundant art forms, the Baule people continue to place the greatest value on masks and figure sculptures, which remain the only sculptural art still widely used in Baule villages. While there is a difference between the Baule view of their objects and that of Western connoisseurs, there are points of agreement. Aesthetic appreciation is one: Baule artist, and individual owners of objects, certainly sometimes enjoy the beauty of these objects and the skill it took coproduce them. […]
Ornaments above the face are chosen for their beauty and have no iconographic significance” p.141

View translationObjet envoyé dans une boîte à chaussures de récupération donc gratuite avec un peu de papiers à l'intérieur de rembourrage. Objet et boîte très légers pour un coût d'envoi de 29€. Pas honnête du tout.
View translationThe customer wanted a particularly small box. Naturally, I informed the despatch department of this request. As we don't have any boxes in this mini size, a colleague collected a new, unused shoe box from the shoe shop opposite especially for the customer. Our shipping price of 29 euros is an average calculation. This price includes: Postage, packaging material, payment for the packer and insurance up to 10,000 euros. In this way, we offer an excellent insurance service that is unrivalled, because we do not sell tourist goods, but art. With kind regards, Patricia Winheim
