A polychrome standing wood male figure. Democratic Republic of the Congo. 20th century. 17"h x 4"w.
Provenance: Inventory and Collection from the Estate of Merton D. Simpson. Simpson inventory #8989. Catalog Notes: Stylistically this figure probably comes from Gabon. The heart shaped face, the kaolin, and the shape of the nose suggest Kwele; however there are elements that are atypical that might even be a basis for arguing a Congo origin.
