This small, wooden sculpture of a female figure, carved by the Ewe people of Togo, is a fine example of African art. The figure, with its simple, stylized features and dark-painted hair, stands with arms at its side. It is a beautiful representation of the human form, with a focus on the key aspects of the body, demonstrating the artistic talent of the Ewe people. The figure, crafted in the 20th century, is a reminder of the long and rich history of African art and its impact on global art.
