Wooden Horned face Mask with Polychrome residue, Bobo

Item Details

Description

Title: Wooden Horned face Mask with Polychrome residue, Bobo people, Burkina Faso

Maker: coll.Klaus Paysan

Origin: Burkina Faso

Dimension: 92 x 28 x 26

Material: Wood

Additional Informatioon: An elongated wooden mask with two long horns and a white-toothed grin, made by the Bobo people. The object is in good condition with some slight cracks in the wood along the top and back of the mask. Dated to the middle of the 20th century. Provenance: This item stems from the collection of Klaus Paysan (1930-2011), who was a German photographer and author. Paysan first visited the African continent in 1961.
