This figure is reminiscent of the time when Africa was dominated by European invaders or colonists. A sad time when most native tribal African art was considered to be absolute taboo, uncivilized, the work of the devil and banned from further production by the invaders. Precious African articles were destroyed and stolen due to this ignorance. Despite this assault, the heart of the African artist survived. In West Africa, Baule artisans in Ghana after a while began to produce small painted wooden figurines of colonialists as they were viewed through African eyes. Today these figures are very popular and extremely undervalued in our opinion. On display is a well dressed businessman complete with white tie, matching white shirt, long button down blue coat and a tall tradional fez! This tall slender figure is well crafted and carved from a solid hard wood. Please click photo for enlargement! See other photos below! Sold When OFFLINE click button to leave a message!
