British Museum, London 2005..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benin_Bronzes."The Bronzes depict a variety of scenes, including animals, fish, humans and scenes of court life. They were cast in matching pairs (although each was individually made). It is thought that they were originally nailed to walls and pillars in the palace as decoration, some possibly also offering instructive scenes of protocol.".http://www.britishmuseum.org/.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Museum
