Exceptional: magnificent royal, wooden, typical statue of the ethnic group Bushoong of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

 

Height: 51 cm.

 

The sculptor Bushoong is especially known for their royal statues, called ndop.

 

To be established, king had to commit the incest with her sister; act was prohibited in the rest of the society, but appropriate for the monarchy and justified by the sacred nature of the power which made fatal a relation of alliance outside the family, it isolated totally the sovereign.

 

Every royal portrait represents king who can be identified thanks to his totemic animal placed in front of him.
