About this piece

Two figures on one bench, and the bench has legs.

Senufo artists of the Ivory Coast, West Africa, cast this group of a seated family in bronze in the mid 20th century. Paired and seated figures are a familiar theme in Senufo art, often tied to ideas of ancestry and community. Two crested figures sit side by side on a frame stool, a child held at the woman’s lap. The bronze is greenish-grey, rubbed and weathered.

About 6 inches tall. A family reunion that fits on a shelf. Rough, weathered and devoted.
