Details

The Kuba had an exceptionally rich material culture. Deep-rooted sense of art, which is mainly expressed in craft, decorative arts. Form language is abstract, geometric. The world saw farmers, hunters, fishermen and it took them a long time to gain recognition as artists. Perhaps France took the lead by opening a Museum close to the Eiffel Tower. It goes without saying that this concerns both textiles and the accompanying brochure of Museum het Prinsenhof Leeuwarden. Image two is the front and # 3 is the back. The year of production is almost impossible to determine exactly. Most likely between 1930-1960. Dimensions: Right and left not the same length and narrow: 70 x 32 and 71 x 28
