About this piece
Two faces on one neck, and neither is explaining.
Kulango casters of Cote d’Ivoire, Ivory Coast, West Africa, made this kneeling abstract figure in bronze in the 20th century. Cast figures from the Kulango region are commonly associated with ritual and protective use. Two triangular heads rise on a single leaning body, each with narrow slit eyes and a ridge for a nose. The torso is a thick, smooth column that bends forward into folded knees.
About 5 inches tall. Two heads are better than one, and it keeps its counsel.
