DOGON, FIGURES 2, Mali

Usually representing spirits, ancestors or the primordial couple, figures such as these were placed in shrines and treated with great respect. Through a wide range of style, scale, belief and function the couples depicted share a timeless, serene equality necessary to the continuity of their societies.

Note: Three pieces (32, 35 and 37), although carved by Dogon carvers in the traditional style, show no signs of age or use and were probably made for sale.
