DOGON STYLE METAL COUPLES, Mali

These cast metal figures express status, prestige and power. They would bring honor to the ancestors, the current leadership and the owner of the sculpture.

Despite their appearance, these Dogon figures show no evidence of age or use and were probably made to be sold.
