Nigeria

Ere Ibeji female twin figure
Ilorin Style, Oyo Area,
Yoruba

Carved wood, pigments, metal
Early 20th century
Height : 11 ¼ in. (28,5 cm)

Ex private collection, Europe

The statuettes linked to twin worship, are called ere ibeji in the Yoruba language: ere signifying a sacred image, ibi born and eji a double. Symbols of prestige, wealth and fecundity, ere ibeji figures also guaranteed the perpetuation of future generations. These effigies of ancestors were an integral part of everyday activities, punctuating the family life of the Yoruba. Subject to very codified rituals, ere ibeji figures were pampered, with their care including feeding, washing and oiling.
They were considered to be living beings, a reincarnation of ancestor-twins. Representations always showed them at the peak of their strength and power in adulthood.
This Ibeji figure is distinguished by the rigor of construction of the statue, the sensuality of its curves and the fineness of its details. The erosion of the facial features is quite affecting, linked as it is to the statue being ritually handled and stroked generation after generation.

Shango figure

Nigeria

Yoruba Shango altar figure
Ogbedi workshop
Igbomina Area

Carved wood
19th or early 20th century
Height: 22 in. (56 cm)

Ex collection Lance Entwistle, London
Ex collection Carlo Monzino, Lugano
Ex Galerie Ratton-Hourdé, Paris
Ex collection Pierre Larock, Paris
Ex collection particulière, Brussels

Exhibited and published
The Carlo Monzino Collection, New York, 1986, n°72

Shango is among the most powerful orishas (deities) in the Yoruba pantheon.
God of Thunder, Magician King, great seducer and powerful warrior, Shango was at once feared, respected and revered.
Shango’s main attribute is the double axe, an expression of the thundering power of Shango and his gift of second sight, which allows him to punish the guilty.

As stated by the late John Pemberton III, Crosby Professor of religion, Emeritus (Amherts College) and world-renowned specialist of Yoruba art, studying a closely related Shango figure, the elegance of this oshe Shango immediately captures our attention. The female figure is slight and beautifully proportioned. Her strength is found in her poise. One will notice the superb composition in which the carver balances the reference to Shango's power on her head and her beautifully formed body. Furthermore, while her hands rest with ease upon her hips and her breasts are fully formed, it is in the design of the eyes, their diamond shapes projecting from concave surfaces that draw us into her "inner head," the locus of her spiritual power, her personal destiny as a devotee of orisha Shango.

Ere Ibeji twin figure with a coat of cowrie shells

Oshogbo style
Oyo area

Carved wood, fabric, cowrie shells, beads, metal
Early 20th century
Height: 12 in. (30.5 cm)

Ex collection Michel Huguenin
Ex collection Bernard Fraissine
Ex collection Pierre Terrier
Ex collection Xavier Richer

Published: “Divine Twins”, H. Joubert, X. Richer, Somogy, 2016, p. 83

These statuettes linked to twin worship, are called ere ibeji in the Yoruba language: ere signifying ‘a sacred image’, ibi ‘born’ and eji ‘a double’.
Symbols of prestige, wealth and fecundity, ere ibeji figures also guaranteed the perpetuation of future generations. These effigies of ancestors were an integral part of everyday life, punctuating the family life of the Yoruba. Subject to very codified rituals, ere ibeji figures were pampered, with their care including feeding, washing and oiling.
They were considered to be living beings, a reincarnation of ancestor-twins. Representations always showed them at the peak of their strength and power in adulthood.
The ere ibeji presented here is distinguished by its ancient cloak ornamented with cowry shells, both a symbol and promise of wealth. The high-quality artistry of its carving, in particular the refined rendering of the coiffure is also noteworthy.
