Kota reliquary guardian figure (Gabon) Classic model with a concave face structured around a cross pattern separating brass plates worked in repoussé to imitate lamellae. The very nervous treatment of the lozenge on the reliquary basket is characteristic of the style of an artist or workshop best known for having produced some of the most beautiful convex-faced or Janus figures, such as those reproduced by Alain and Françoise Chaffin (L'Art Kota 1980) under numbers 101, 111, and 113.The back is decorated with a classic lozenge in relief. Wood, iron, copper and brass, H. 64 cm Provenance: - José Raon Pons Oliveras Collection (Barcelona) - Binoche & Giquello sale on November 14, 2019 lot 63 - acquired from Galerie Philippe Ratton (Paris) on December 20, 2019
