A WOOD MATERNITY
A WOOD MATERNITY
Mali, Bambara
107 cm high
Provenance: Guido Gentili collection, acquired at the end of the '60s.
The half-closed eyes, the elongated nose and the slender mouth, on the body - between the breast and the abdomen - the signs of stripping, the child with the face turned towards the viewer: this sculpture exudes a deep sense of devotion for the irreplaceable figure of the mother.
