Canoe
Prow
Korewori, PNG
19th Century
This magnificent canoe prow is rendered brilliantly in the form of a fish
diving into water; the dynamic nature of the sculpture gives the illusion
of actual movement. The face is very expressive with a beautiful heart
shaped design forming the eyes and nose. The motif around the eyes is
specific to Korewori art.
This prow is 19 inches in length.
