Lot description

Decorative African stitched hide wall-hanging animal picture, Babylon, depicting a seated Texas longhorn in Nguni hide, on ombre background, maker's mark on back, approx 38"h, 29.5"w, 6lbs Provenance: Vukari Art, artisan-crafted from 100% Nguni Cowhide Note per consignor: Descended from the Aurochs, the wild cattle of Mesopotamia, the Texas Longhorn crossed oceans with Columbus to forge a new destiny in the Americas. They weathered the wild unknown through sheer grit. They didn't just survive the American frontier; they defined the independent spirit Texans still carry today.
