Zela-luba Bust, Drc
Bust showing a female character. The hands are placed on the hips, the arms are along the body but, detached from it. Small scarifications are present between the breasts and the hips. The face is haughty and shows us angular features and a high gaze. The headdress is elaborate and forms a continuity with the ears which take up the lines of the hairstyle. Very beautiful achievement of a people few in number and who were "Lubalized". Blackened wood with beautiful patina of use. Cracks
