Originating from Northern Ethiopia, this vintage Painted Panel hails from a church pew bench, embodying an important part of the region's religious history. The panel is distinguished by its depiction of Khat leaves, a plant deeply ingrained in Ethiopian culture for its stimulant properties, akin to robust coffee. This antique piece seamlessly combines religious heritage with botanical symbolism, offering a unique insight into the rich traditions of the Horn of Africa.

About Antique African Art:
Hemingway Gallery regards antique African art as the best artistic expression of aesthetic beauty and storytelling throughout the known history of art. Aside from artistic taste, African art accrues value in different ways than other genres, including use in ceremonial settings as well as age. 50 years is regarded as old or antique when it comes to wood masks and totems. Hemingway Gallery provides both authoritative insight and context into each artifact in the collection, possessing and readily exhibiting direct, intimate knowledge of the source and pedigree. The goal is to preserve and curate one-of-a-kind artifacts of importance while creating a platform for the acquisition of spectacular unique pieces within financial reach.
Our Pricing:
Our pricing correlates directly to the asking prices of artists, artisans and art dealers in the various African countries we collect from and the costs of importing their artwork to the U.S. We need to change the idea that artists should be paid pennies for their fine art just because it comes from Africa. Paying a fair price to our artists and dealers is our number one priority and our pricing reflects that.
