Made in matte black porcelain, this bust of a woman borrows its inspiration from the symbolism and intense coloring of African culture. The serene facial features, masterfully sculpted, are rounded off with a decoration using luster and metallic colors. Particularly noteworthy are the details etched in the earrings and pendant and the ornamental work recreating the intricate braiding of the hair. The result is a creation with great expressive strength that speaks to the character of African art.
