Property from a European Private Collection

Ancient stone steles from Ecuador are probably idols that were used in ritual contexts. While each stele is unique, there are some common characteristics: they are fairly uniform in their block-like, cubist form and recessed grooves, all in grey-green sandstone. The anthropomorphic idols are often considered as shamans with the sunken faces referential of mystical and nocturnal owls.
The export of this property from France (including to other Member States of the European Union), as well as export from the European Union, may be subject to one or more export or import licenses being granted. Sotheby’s, upon request and for an administrative fee, may apply for a license to export your Lot(s) outside France.
L’exportation de ce bien hors de France (y compris vers d’autres pays de l’Union Européenne), ainsi que son exportation hors de l’Union Européenne, peuvent-être subordonnées à l’obtention d’une ou plusieurs autorisation(s) d’exporter ou d’importer. Sotheby’s, sur demande et contre paiement de frais administratifs, peut présenter une demande d’autorisation pour exporter votre(vos) Lot(s) hors de France.
