Bronze casting in Benin

Watch the video to discover the historical importance of bronze casting in Benin and how this tradition continues today. The video shows bronze casters at work, sculpting and creating plaques using the lost wax process. The Horniman currently has historical Benin plaques on display and two replica plaques in the Museum’s handling collection, including one like the one shown in the video, depicting an Oba with mudfish legs and feet. -------- http://www.horniman.ac.uk The Horniman Museum and Gardens is an inspiring, surprising, family-friendly, free attraction in South London’s Forest Hill. We’ve been open since Victorian times, when Frederick John Horniman first opened his house and extraordinary collection of objects to visitors. Since then, our collection has grown tenfold and includes internationally important collections of anthropology and musical instruments, as well as an acclaimed aquarium and natural history collection. Unusually for such an important museum, you can see our collection up-close and face-to-face. You can even pick up, try on and play with some of our objects.
