Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

The famous bronze Edo Flute Player from the 16th century on display at the British Museum is depicted here in great detail in a large format. It was made in Benin using the lost-wax method; it is therefore an original piece and not a multiple, and it is around fifty years old. It is a beautiful baby weighing 18.5 kilos!
