Description

The art of sub-Saharan Africa reveals the marvelous achievements of tribal artists--their names unknown--over thousands of years.

Their aesthetic ideal finds form in wood, bone, fabric, bronze and iron.

This illustrated study of traditional African art includes pieces from Western Sudan, the Congolese Basin, the Guinea coast, Gabon, Democratic Republic of Congo and East and South Africa.

Each piece is characterized by its own traditions and artistic forms.

The earliest pieces date from the beginning of the first millennium, the most recent form the early 20th century.

Unique and rare examples are documented, many virtually unknown.
