A very rare Mbole statue from DRC Congo. Mbole statues represent hanged people. They were carried on stretchers to the initiation camps
where they served as social regulators. See example in 'The Tribal Arts Of Africa' J B Bacquart pg. 147
This is a fine example of a rare Mbole Statue and shows good signs of age and use.
