Female Caryatid Drum (Pinge) | Art Institute Essentials Tour

Apr 1, 2024

A sculpture against a gray background shows a female figure with conical breasts and elongated arms holding a drum on her head and sitting on a stool. The drum is almost twice the woman's height and has figures of animals and geometric shapes carved around its middle. A stretched piece of hide forms the top of the drum.
