Shepherd
(Burkina-Faso)
Formerly known as Upper Volta, Burkina-Faso is located on the West African coast. This figure is from a bronze nativity made in a monastery in Ouagadougou and contains figures with beautiful African features. This kneeling shepherd is holding a crook and a most unusual object, a dead goose.
