EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of African art, specifically a stool adorned with a kneeling female caryatid. Originating from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, this exquisite creation is crafted from wood and embellished with intricate glass beads. The stool stands at an impressive height of 59 cm, showcasing the skill and craftsmanship of its creators. The image captures the beauty and cultural significance of this unique artwork housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The delicate carvings on the seat depict a woman gracefully kneeling, serving as both functional support and artistic expression. This sculpture represents a traditional form known as shankadi or luba, reflecting the rich heritage and traditions of African culture. The combination of woodwork and beadwork exemplifies the attention to detail that went into creating this masterpiece. Each element carefully chosen to enhance its aesthetic appeal while preserving its historical value. As we admire this photograph, we are transported to another time and place where art served not only as decoration but also as storytelling mediums for communities across Africa.
