Yoruba female figure, Nigeria
H. 20 ½ in
Beautiful, imposing, generously-shaped Yoruba statue standing, holding two flycatchers in her hands. The waist is adorned with a belt of red and blue beads.
The hairstyle is beautiful and sophisticated.
This statue probably stood on an altar dedicated to the worship of the god Eshu.
