Hemba Ancestor AAA833 sculpture
This iconic representation of a Hemba ancestor, dating from the 20th century and native to DR Congo, adopts a classical posture, with the hands resting on the umbilicus and the eyes half-closed. It bears the imprint of ancestral nobility, strengthening family ties during crucial ceremonies. As a spiritual receptacle, it facilitates the connection between the worlds of the dead and the living. Carved from natural wood, this unique piece measuring 30x25x87 cm elegantly embodies the artistic and spiritual heritage of the Hemba tribe, taking on profound meaning and striking timelessness.
