EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art, titled "Seated figure, Tada" dating back to the 13th - 14th century in Nigeria. Crafted from polished copper, this West African sculpture stands at an impressive height of 54 cm. The seated figure exudes a sense of naturalism and exhibits exquisite attention to detail. Its gender is somewhat ambiguous, as it possesses both male and female characteristics, creating an intriguing androgynous presence. The artist skillfully captures the essence of humanity through this masterful work. The viewer is immediately drawn to the sculpture's serene expression and graceful posture. The smoothness of the polished metal adds a touch of elegance to its overall appearance. This artwork serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage found in Nigeria during this period. Photographed by Dirk Bakker with great precision, every intricate feature is highlighted in stunning clarity. The lighting enhances the depth and texture of the copper sculpture while maintaining its authenticity. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only Nigerian art but also the talent and creativity that thrived centuries ago. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries or limitations when it comes to expressing human emotions and capturing beauty for generations to come.
