Sculpture en bois, figure divine Igbo « Alusi », Nigeria, Afrique Grande figure de divinité africaine sculptée à la main, probablement issue de la culture igbo au Nigeria, dite « figure Alusi ». Elle représente une divinité masculine debout, au corps allongé, aux bras pliés, coiffée d’un couvre-chef élaboré et dont la poitrine est ornée de motifs en relief. On remarque tout particulièrement la couche de peinture épaisse de couleur ocre jaune, dont la structure et la texture rappellent une couche de terre argileuse et qui recouvre une grande partie de la surface du bois. - Origine : Nigeria, probablement Igbo - Datation : sans doute première moitié du XXe siècle - Matériau : bois recouvert d’une couche de peinture jaune intense, d’aspect argileux - État : traces évidentes d’usure et de vieillissement, écaillures de peinture, fissures de séchage ainsi que des lacunes importantes et des dommages au bois, notamment au niveau des pieds Dimensions : H. 113 cm, L. 24 cm
