This very interesting bronze figure was purchased at a bronze foundry in Ouagadougou, the capital city of  Burkina Faso, in 1995.  It was made using the lost wax process.  The piece is first sculpted in wax then encased in plaster with drain holes.  When heated, the wax melts and drains leaving a cavity which is then filled with molten bronze.  The plaster cast is broken, removed and voila.    11" high
