EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the Koma-Builsa civilization in Ghana. The bronze helmet, standing at a height of 23 cm, is adorned with an awe-inspiring figure that surmounts it. This piece, now part of a private collection and previously owned by W. and U. Horstmann, holds great historical significance. Believed to date back to the 13th-19th century, this helmet offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Koma-Builsa people. It serves as both a primitive artwork and a ritual object used for ancestor veneration within their tribe. The intricate craftsmanship displayed on this helmet reflects the artistic prowess of African School artisans who created it. Its presence in burial grounds further emphasizes its importance in honoring fallen warriors or revered individuals within their community. As we admire this tribal art masterpiece captured through Heini Schneebeli's lens, we are transported to another time and place where ancient traditions were upheld with utmost reverence. The sheer power emanating from this artifact evokes feelings of respect and admiration for those who once wore it. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this image for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and delve deeper into Africa's rich cultural tapestry. Let us cherish these glimpses into history that remind us of our shared human experiences across different civilizations throughout time.
