A KUBA WOVEN RAFFIA AND EMBROIDERED TEXTILE CEREMONIAL OVERSKIRT, NTSHAK, LATE 19TH-EARLY 20TH CENTURYExternal Expert Authentication: This lot was authenticated by Prof. Erwin Melchardt, who confirms the attribution and dating above. A copy of Prof. Melchardt's expertise written for Dorotheum, Vienna, 9 June 2016, lot 104, accompanies this lot. Erwin Melchardt is an Austrian journalist, art critic, and internationally recognized expert in non-European art, particularly African and Oceanic art. A passionate collector with a collection of around 4,000 objects, he became one of Austria's leading specialists in the field. His work includes sourcing, authenticating, valuing, and cataloguing objects for international auctions, as well as lecturing on non-European art at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. He also compiled the catalog of the Leopold Museum's collection of African and Oceanic works, contributing to research and exhibitions exploring the relationship between European modernism and non-European artistic traditions.Democratic Republic of the Congo. Raffia palm fiber and bark cloth. Rectangular in form, carefully woven and embroidered, with a long central panel composed of bands of individually stitched triangular motifs in dyed black and white fibers, arranged alternately upward and downward along a central axis. The composition framed above and below by additional triangular geometric motifs, and along the sides by a pattern of intersecting lines. The hem finely stitched.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: Overall good condition with expected wear, obvious losses, minor soiling, small tears, minor loose threads.Dimensions: Length 143.5 cm (excl. frame), 181.3 cm (incl. frame)Mounted and framed behind glass.Kuba textiles are a form of raffia cloth unique to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, distinguished by their exceptional elaboration and the complexity of their surface decoration. Most examples consist of square or rectangular panels woven from palm leaf fibers, enriched with intricate geometric motifs executed through linear embroidery and a range of additional stitching techniques.Kuba skirts embody the cultural value placed on community, as each garment is the product of multiple contributors working in sequence. Traditionally, men are responsible for weaving the raffia base cloth, while women transform these materials into a wide variety of textile forms, including ceremonial skirts, prestige or tribute cloths, headdresses, and basketry.Historically, Kuba women wore overskirts during funerary displays. Over time, this garment was incorporated into broader ceremonial ensembles used in ritual dances, celebrations, and masked performances. Typically secured with a belt, the overskirt was worn over a monochrome skirt, often red or white, and decorated with embroidery. These textiles often display a rich vocabulary of design elements, in which skilled embroiderers combine pattern, color, line, and texture to produce highly varied and visually dynamic compositions.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related Kuba ntshak in the Royal Museum for Central Africa, Tervuren, Belgium. Compare a closely related Kuba ntshak, dated 20th century, in the Honolulu Museum of Art.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Sotheby's London, 10 November 2022, lot 57Price: GBP 1,638 or approx.
