Delivery EstimateThe Bamana people are a ethnic group from Mali who are the most dominant in the country. Ghanaian artist Emmanuel Austin Ankude captures the Bamana art style with this sculpture, hand-carved from African sese wood in the shape of a man.

"Striking handsome statue"
Very masculine piece, beautifully finished. Its posture conveys an impression of strength, prowess and resilience, which I expect would have been the tribal intent of these sort of pieces. Will be treasured, thanks
