Blolo Bian sculpture

A male representation of the Blolo Bian

The Blolo Bian AAA1358 sculpture by Versmissen represents the male spirit spouse in Baule culture. Carved from wood, it takes the form of an idealized man. A long beard, almond-shaped eyes and a gentle smile define his face, giving the figure a calm and immediately recognizable expression.

Originating from Ivory Coast, this piece dates from the mid-20th century. It measures 11,5 x 15 x 49 cm and features a natural beige finish. Its vertical silhouette highlights the craftsmanship devoted to the figure and his facial features. This sculpture is presented as a testament to the art and culture of the Baule people.
