Description
This is a very interesting old wood sculpture featuring a Dayak Mother and child, the mother having a hudoq mask like face and the baby on her back in a traditional carrier, as she holds a Tortoise to her chest. The Esoteric reasons for this are lost , yet the sculpture stands out as a wonderful example of the Dayak Tribal Arts, Borneo / kalimantan, Indonesia. The figure is carved from a drnse hard wood and measures 17 inches tall.
