Kotoko Bronze Equestrian Figure

A single pole of a torso rises from a lumpy, grey-green horse blob

This equestrian figure is Kotoko, from Chad, Central Africa, and dates to the 20th century. It is bronze. The Kotoko peoples of the Lake Chad basin are known for small cast metal figures, and horse and rider subjects are among the forms associated with the region. Matte, chalky surface in smoky grey with pinkish patches. A narrow figure with a round knob for a head stands upright on a low, rounded body. A looped neck and twisted cord extend to one side. It is 2.1 inches wide, 0.5 deep and 1.75 high.

Proportions are a suggestion, and it took the hint.
