Hardcover. Quarto. Hardcover. Illustrated boards in matching illustrated jacket. 211 pages : illustrations (chiefly color), map ; 30 x 25 cm. Parallel texts in English and French. Richly illustrated, this monograph is the first devoted to the work of the Babembe people, who live on the banks of Lake Tanganyika in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Their anthropomorphic statues, carved from wood, are characterized by incisions representing tattoos, scarifications, or skin decorations that the Babembe use during initiation ceremonies. These striking works, many of which have never been published before, are adorned with fabric, tools made of horn or stone jewels, and eyes made from faience or shell. The works represent ancestral spirits who link the sculpture's commissioner with supernatural forces of the Babembe's animist religion. Here, scholars analyze the aesthetic quality, style, and meaning of each fascinating sculpture. VG. Light shelfwear. Errata laid in front.
