Less known in African art as benign bronzes, bronzes Tikar deserve it lingers by the quality of work.
Magnificent bronze lost wax, representing a Tikar motherhood.
Sitting on a royal stool, she holds a child on his right knee and is about to give her the breast. High line, it is richly adorned with jewels, necklaces and bracelets around his neck and wrists. The cap is very elaborate and numerous ritual scarification cover his belly. eyes are drawn downward.
A play very ornate.
It will be appreciated the proportions of the room.
