Ethnic Design-Anthropomorphic ceramic vessel, Zande People, DRC
About the Item
This vessel demonstrates anthropomorphic qualities through the subtle inclusion of human-like features. The rounded form evokes the shape of a torso or belly, while the small facial elements—eyes, nose, and mouth—are clearly modeled on the upper section, giving the object a quiet, expressive presence. The addition of protrusions resembling ears further strengthens the association with the human figure. Vessels like this reflect a symbolic or cultural connection to the human body, capturing key corporeal traits in stylized, often abstracted, forms.
