Here's the last from the book "African and Oceanic Art", Trowell & Nevermann. (Doesn't 'Nevermann' sound like a TC name?) This book is chock-full of great photos, I'm just cherry-picking the ones I find most interesting; Reliquary figure, Fang, Gabon. From the Plass Collection, British Museum, London. Paddle blade, Asmat, former Dutch New Guinea. Uli figure, New Ireland, Bismarck Archipelago. Very ancient design. Bird figure, from a Soul Boat offering, Asmat, former Dutch New Guinea. Mask, Sepik River District, NE. New Guinea, about 27" tall. |
