A large Prang sculpture from Ghana.

The Prang is a small Etrhnic group of estimated 2.000 people in the middle of the country, characteristic are the concave fascial features - mouth and eyes are looking like holes in a globular head - and a sculptural influence, which is obviously coming from the Mobo of Northern Ghana. These sculptures are extremly rare and in literature unknown.We know only three other mostly fragmentary sculptures.
