Katsina bust, Nigeria
Terracotta
H. 39 cm
Thermoluminescence test ASA, dated 30/10/00
A Katsina terracotta bust of a figure in a contemplative attitude. The skull, marked with dotted patterns, is shaved, the eyes half closed. The body is treated with gentleness: the shoulders are rounded, the belly relaxed. A belt encloses the abdomen. The sculpture gives off a feeling of serenity.
