About the Item
Tutsi tribe artist Ndatite Ilo from Rwanda carved this gorgeous African wooden statue sculpture. This unique artwork showcases a beautiful black woman, a Mother or Madonna, carrying a baby. The spectacular rangy shape has fine detailing, delicate carving, and wonderful facial expression. The sculpture rests on a custom-made wood base covered with red velvet. The hand-engraved artist's signature is on the underside and reads NDATITE ILO - EAA NYUNDO. The sculpture was crafted circa the early 20th Century.
