MASK - Carved anthropomorphic mask, with an elongated face and pointed chin, pierced almond-shaped eyes and a marked mouth, with prominent ears and a voluminous forehead. Made of wood with fibers and fabric, it retains earthy polychromy with reds and whites, revealing an irregular patina and areas of wear. The edge is finished with a fiber braid that outlines the face and extends into the headdress. It presents characteristics that may refer to traditions of Central Africa.
