The frame is carved with fish, birds, and reptiles, all characteristic Dogon subjects. Believed to have been fabricated for the European market. The back of the frame has been fitted with a French cleat for hanging. 

Mali, West Africa, 1900-25.

Condition: The back of the frame has been fitted with a painted wood panel to highlight the iron figures. There is a slight warp to the frame so the work protrudes from the wall somewhat. Wear commensurate with age and use.
