LOT NUMBER 9
African rosewood sculpture of a seated musician c. 1960
A rosewood figure of a seated musician playing a wind instrument, carved in a semi abstract style and with elongated proportions, the surface highly polished and showing in places the variegated patina of the wood. The style suggests African work similar to the pair of Makonde style figures also included in this sale but while similar pieces can be found there are no direct parallels. But the composition is striking and the quality of the wood enhances the carver’s skill. Dating to the second half of the C20th seems likely, perhaps to the 1960s.| Size: | 26.5 cm long |
| Weight: | na |
| Date: | c. 1960 |
| Condition: | Very good condition, no issues |
| Estimate: | £60 – 80 |
