This striking African sculpture, carved from wood with a rich patina, depicts two figures seated back-to-back with their arms interlaced. This intimate pose suggests a deep connection and interdependence, perhaps symbolizing the unity of a couple, the balance of opposing forces, or the harmony between the spiritual and physical realms.
The figures' serene expressions and the elegant flow of their forms create a sense of harmony and tranquility. The sculpture's size (13" tall) makes it a commanding presence. Benin culture often used figures in pairs to represent concepts such as duality, balance, and the interconnectedness of all things.
