Great work. Like I've always maintained if you don't tell your story, nobody would. I am proud to learn through this piece that the bronze works commissioned by the Benin Oba's was not just a luxury pastime but a deliberate even if costly mission to tell their own story for posterity and for the education of their generations (of which we form a part). How well ahead of their time, they really were.
