    Superb and rare female statue ATTIE AGNY from Ivory Coast
    Half-finished wood with a patina3 rows of pearl necklaces around the neck
    cowrie shell placed between the legs as a feminine suxe held by a nail
    Tribal scarifications on the belly, back and neck
    Bead necklace placed as a bracelet around the left wrist
    Beautiful crown carved on top of the skull
    It could be a work of the Master of the crowns who worked between Ghana and the Ivory Coast at the beginning of the XXth century (see the book Les maîtres de la sculpture de Côte d'ivoire éditions Skira)
    height 45cm plus wooden base.
    Nice patina of use.
    Does this rare sculpture represent a queen?
    The very haughty position, the straight head
    The fineness of the face with half closed eyes
    The whole makes us think of the representation of a very important character in the ATTIE culture
