Vessel
Not on view
Created by Matakam, Mofa or Mafa potters, from the Kirdi group, such large round vessels present an unusual form. Characteristic are the tilted neck and rope-like appliqué which have been described in the litterature as stylized representations of a rib-cage or cicatrice, which participate in enhancing this vessel with anthropomorphic features.
