Vintage African bronze sculptures, made in a distinctive, elongated modernist style. Often originating from West African countries (such as Burkina Faso), they are cast using the traditional 'lost-wax method' (cire perdue). The sculptures typically depict daily tribal life. The left sculpture shows a male figure with a beard and a traditional headdress, while the right sculpture depicts a female figure with a bowl or basket in her hand and traditional braided hair.
