Description |
Français : Statue royale anthropo-zoomorphe, dite bochio, de style Fon. Provenance : Abomey, royaume du Danhomé (aujourd'hui Bénin).
Cette statue représenterait Béhanzin, dernier roi du Dahomey (à présent Bénin). Ses armoiries comportaient un requin. Pour signifier son intention de faire la guerre aux Français dont la flotte traversait quotidiennement la barre en rade de Cotonou, Béhanzin se compara au requin : « le requin audacieux a troublé la barre » ("gbo ouele fandan agbedui brou".) English: Half-man, half-fish statue (called bochio), Fon style. Provenance : Abomey, ancient kingdom of Dahomey. This statue would represent Béhanzin, the last king of Dahomey (now Benin). His coat of arms featured a shark. To announce his intention to fight the French fleet which was stationing at Cotonou and crossed the sandbar every day, Béhanzin compared himself to the shark: “the daring shark has troubled the sandbar” ("gbo ouele fandan agbedui brou"). |
