Dogon, Mali
Gesockelt (base included)
Holz. H 35 cm.

Provenienz:
- französische Privatsammlung, Togo.
- Nachlass René David (1928-2015), Zürich.

Die Dogon verehrten Altarfiguren, von denen die meisten den Ahnen - wirklichen und mythischen - geweiht waren. Die Figuren galten als Bindeglied zwischen der sichtbaren und der unsichtbaren Welt, mittels dessen der Besitzer Kontakt zu den Geistwesen aufnehmen konnte.
