This is a wooden sculpture by the Makonde people, a traditional craft from East Africa (Tanzania and Mozambique).
This piece, featuring a figure playing a drum, is considered a figurative sculpture that expresses daily life and cultural activities. Makonde sculptures are characterized by their powerful forms inspired by people's lives, myths, and rituals, and are highly regarded African art worldwide.
