A lovely little carved woman figure in a checkered dress. Great as a paperweight or desk decor.
All Shona sculpture was made after 1965. Frank McEwan, an Englishman, who was director of the Rhodes National Gallery in what was then Southern Rhodesia, began a school in 1956, and in 1965 encouraged the students, who had been painting, to move to stone. See Oliver Sultan's "Life in Stone."
