Couverture souple. Condition: Neuf. Dust Jacket Condition: Neuf. Edition originale. .Les peuples kuba de la République démocratique du Congo ont engendré l'une des plus grandes traditions d'art décoratif au monde, produisant une incomparable variété d'objets décoratifs pour leur usage personnel. Si les figures royales kuba (ndop) sont considérées comme faisant partie des impressionnantes sculptures d'Afrique subsaharienne, les Kuba ont aussi créé un grand nombre de masques et autres objets d'art associés à l'initiation des jeunes hommes et destinés encore aujourd'hui à l'intégration culturelle des valeurs fondamentales de la société et de la vénération des morts.
