West African Bronze Fish Sculpture

A hand-hammered bronze fish sculpture, crafted with intricate detailing to the surface. Inspired by marine life and mythological symbolism.

The fish motif is among the most recognizable forms in Benin artistic tradition. Produced by the Edo people from the 13th century onward, Benin metalwork encompassed a wide range of bronze and brass creations, including celebrated royal portrait heads, ceremonial sculptures, and other finely executed works of art.
