Ahnenfigur
Dogon, Mali
Gesockelt (base included)
Holz. H 52,5 cm.

Provenienz:
- Pierre Vérité, Paris (1964).
- Nachlass Schweizer-Amsler, Kastanienbaum.
- Galerie Fischer Auktionen Luzern, Juni 2011, Lot 5032
- Nachlass Charles Deprez (1938 - 2018), Lutry.

Die Dogon stellten männliche sowie weibliche Figuren auf unterschiedliche Altäre, von deren die meisten den Ahnen - wirklichen und mythischen - geweiht waren.

Die Figuren galten als ein Bindeglied zwischen der sichtbaren und der unsichtbaren Welt, mittels dessen der Besitzer Kontakt zu den Geistwesen aufnehmen konnte.
