N. 90088393
Superb Hand-beaten tree-bark, painted with organic pigments. Framed with black wood and glass as shows the last pictures. Without frame approx. 50 x 80 x 0.2 cm. Framed 95 x 64,5 x 2 cm.
Mbuti people, one of the oldest indigenous people of the Congo region of Africa, are one of several indigenous pygmy groups. They are hunter-gatherers that live in the Ituri rainforest. The Mbuti are composed of bands which are relatively small in size, ranging from 15 to 60 people. Survivors of an ancient race that was once dispersed over the African continent, the Mbuti now dwell in scattered bands, ranging from 15 to 60 people, roaming from camp to camp seeking food and shelter. The forest, seemingly inhospitable to outsiders, provides natural protection for the Pygmies. A seminomadic people, the Mbuti produce art that is easily portable. Understandably, clothing and body decoration occupy a central position. Bark cloth has traditionally been the clothing of the Pygmy and originally used as loincloth for ceremonies and dances. The large pieces were made by women to receive their newborn children. As trees were considered sacred, the bark was assumed to have a protective quality. Very nice and decorative, black frame and transparent glass.
Acquired from a Spanish private collection R.O in 1981.
