Former Blaise Tribal Art, Brussels.
Wood.
Figure of African art representing the mythical Chokwe hero, Tchibinda Ilunga.
Its complex hairdo composed of a raised lobe and curved side protrusions, enables to identify it easily, just like the royal objects it is holding in its hands.
Ancient patina. Time and use have worn this figurine which presents a repair on the arms and a crack on the head.
Blue incrusted pigment is still slightly visible on the hairdo, it symbolises magic.
