Kneeling Figure, Possibly Luba-related

Central Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Height: 17,5 cm

Carved wooden figure kneeling on a circular base. The figure displays a rounded head with finely incised scarification framing the eyes and forehead, heavy-lidded almond-shaped eyes, and a calm, composed facial expression. The coiffure is carved in a stylized, flat-topped form with vertical incisions, and the compact body with bent legs reflects the balanced proportions typical of Central Congolese carving traditions.

Possibly Luba-related.
