Large African Hardwood Carved Figure of a Maasai Warrior, Circa 1930.

This superb, beautifully carved hardwood sculpture is of a native African Maasai warrior sitting in a semi kneeling pose. He has powerful masculine features and immaculately styled hair. He is semi naked with a muscular physique and is wearing a cloth robe buttoned over his shoulder on his chest. He is wearing heavy ear decorations and a tribal necklace and is holding a spear in one hand and a club in the other.

This most impressive carving is made from a single large piece of rich, dense timber, including the naturalistic base signed by the artist MWANLA. This large and decorative sculpture is in very good original condition with a very pleasing age related patina with some light shrinkage marks to the natural grain.
