This large, hand-carved wooden statue represents a four-faced Nkisi power figure from the Songye people of the Democratic Republic of Congo, circa 1930s. Symbolizing protection and ancestral spirits, this imposing sculpture embodies the deep connection between the living and the dead central to Songye culture. A rare and majestic piece of Central African tribal art, it serves as both a spiritual symbol and a striking decorative object for collectors and enthusiasts.
