Περιγραφή από τον πωλητή
Mask of the Baule Queen, Sakassou Region, Ivory Coast, wood with a dark patina; Central Ivory Coast, Sakassou Region. Incl stand.
This mask belongs to the courtly and ceremonial art of the Baule people, whose cultural center is traditionally located in the Sakassou region. As the former residence of the early Baule rulers, Sakassou holds particular significance for the creation of representative artworks that combine political authority, spiritual legitimacy, and ideal beauty. The so-called "Queen's Mask" depicted here embodies less an individual person than an ideal of feminine dignity and refined rule.
The mask achieves its effect through the combination of strict symmetry and ornamental richness. Its circular base is surrounded by a triangular frame, reminiscent of a radiant sun, lending the work a monumental presence. Four jagged protrusions above the forehead enhance this radiance and create a hierarchical emphasis on the head. The three-part, intricately patterned hairstyle points to the high cultural significance of elaborate hairdos within Baule society.
The face adheres to the classic ideals of Baule aesthetics: closed eyes, a long, straight nose, and a small mouth shaped into a kiss convey tranquility, self-control, and inner harmony. The dotted eyebrows, which radiate outwards at the temples, and the ribbed ornaments beside the corners of the mouth enrich the surface with a fine, rhythmic texture. The decorative band, which tapers to a stamp-like shape below the chin, unifies the composition and emphasizes its vertical axis.
The dark, glossy patina of the mask contrasts with the lighter undermask.
