Handmade in East Africa, dating to around the late 19th / early 20th century, possibly earlier, this scarce, one-of-a-kind, museum quality work, features a richly detailed patinated bronze head and tail with etched textural elements, tall ears and faux ringed horn spike antlers, mounted on hand sculpted primitive solid wooden body, adorded with scattered remnants of the original gesso and polychrome paint decoration, including floral saddle, collar, and intricate trompe-l'œil graining detail over the whole. circa 1890

A superb example, museum exhibition quality, in great original unrestored antique condition.
