KUBA skirt textile panel #1,
DR Congo, mid 20th century, cm 65x73.
End panel of a long cloth that was worn as a skirt or dress. The full skirts (Ngeende) were made up of several panels sewn together and worn bunched up and wrapped around many times resulting in ceremonial dresses.
A rather smart and distinguished image. Recommended.
