Item Details

Description

A Benue River standing figure with old breaks at legs. Nigeria, Mumuyte/Chamba style. 20th century. 12"h x 3 1/2"w x 3 1/2"d.
Provenance: Inventory and Collection from the Estate of Merton D. Simpson.
Simpson inventory #8358. Catalog Notes: Although the breaks appear to have some age, this sculpture is idiosyncratic and over the top making it very difficult to attribute the sculpture in a traditional context related to this region.
