Sculpture Ere Ibeji AAA930

A male Ibeji figurine from Nigeria

The Ere Ibeji sculpture AAA930 distributed by Versmissen is a male wooden figure from the Yoruba tradition of Nigeria. Dating from the 20th century, this piece showcases the artistry and expertise of Yoruba sculptors. The human figure is arranged in a vertical composition that highlights the head, torso and limbs. The overall design reflects a sculptural language directly associated with the culture and traditions of the Yoruba people.

The wood has a slightly rough texture, perceptible both visually and by touch. This surface complements the volumes of the figurine and contributes to its overall expression without obscuring the different parts of the figure. Measuring 7 x 8 x 28 cm, the sculpture has a narrow, elongated format. Its proportions make it possible to appreciate the complete silhouette and the craftsmanship of the Yoruba sculptors.
