拍品描述 翻译
A MASSIVE LOBI WOOD ANTHROPOMORPHIC CHAIR, BURKINA FASO, 19TH-EARLY 20TH CENTURYSkillfully carved from a single piece of hardwood, with a gently curved seat that flows into a straight, inclined backrest terminating in a rounded tip with two carved rectangular recesses. The structure supported by two robust trapezoidal rear legs and a third front leg with a right-angled return. The wood exhibiting an attractive natural grain and a fine, naturally grown, dark patina.Provenance: The collection of Inge Bienenstein, Vienna, Austria, thence by descent within the family. Ingeborg Bienenstein (d. 2013) was the founder and director of Bienenstein Gallery, which she started in 1978 in Vienna, Austria. The gallery held several exhibitions each year, displaying fine antiques and works of art from Asia, Africa, and Oceania in context with modern art and design from Europe. This approach aimed at showcasing a universal language of art and the fact that art from all around the world can be connected in a meaningful way.Condition: Very good condition with old surface wear and natural age-related imperfections, such as small splits and age cracks. Expected traces of weathering and erosion. Scattered minor chips along the edges. Good patina overall.Dimensions: Length 135 cmKnown as dagalo in the traditional Nuna language of Burkina Faso, the present chair is carved from a single piece of hardwood. African hardwoods, including mahogany, iroko, and wenge, have long been prized by carvers for their durability, density, resistance to pests and moisture, and fine grain. Like much traditional African furniture, the dagalo is portable, individually owned, and historically serves as a marker of status.Carved with an adze by a blacksmith or by its owner, this type of chair is distinguished by its sharply curved back, which also functions as a headrest. Its three legs identify it as a male chair. In the evening, its owner would carry it to a courtyard to converse with other men of the village. Such handcrafted objects were valued as personal possessions and heirlooms, often passed down through generations until they are worn beyond use. See Christopher D. Roy, Art of the Upper Volta Rivers, 1987, p. 62.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related Nuna wood dagalo, Burkina Faso, 19th to early 20th century, 59.7 cm long, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, object number 1978.412.642.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's Paris, 13 December 2012, lot 488Price: EUR 8,125 or approx.
