Description
wood, black paint, extremely overlong arms and accentuated genital, scarification marks on belly and back, flattened head with Lele-typical double arched brows and long neck plaits, min. dam., cracks, slight traces of abrasion;
the Lele are decisively influenced by neighbouring Kuba groups, which makes it difficult to differentiate their ritual artworks from those of the other Kuba kinsmen.
