Μία ξύλινη μάσκα από τον λαό Γουρό, προέλευση Μπουαφλέ, Κοντέι Ιβοριά, με τίτλο A wooden mask, συνοδευόμενη από βάση, ύψος 28 cm, βάρος 1,2 kg, σε κατάσταση μέτρια.
Περιγραφή από τον πωλητή
This ceremonial mask of the Guro people from the Bouaflé region in central Ivory Coast is among the most impressive examples of mask art, which, within Guro societies, intertwines notions of beauty, social harmony, and spiritual presence. Guro masks appeared at festivals, initiations, and public ceremonies and were not understood as static works of art, but rather as living participants within performative events. Their appearance is often based on idealized human features and simultaneously reflects cultural concepts of grace and refined behavior.
The mask is characterized by an exceptionally naturalistic polychromy. The hair, gathered into a rolled, braided bun, is dyed deep black and contrasts effectively with the pinkish flesh tones of the face. The slightly flushed cheeks suggest cosmetic enhancement and underscore the festive character of the depiction. Strictly defined black eyebrows frame the half-open eyes, whose sculpted lids, black irises, and white-rimmed eyeballs create a remarkable sense of life. Additional black outlines enhance the expressiveness of the gaze.
The delicate nose is accentuated by small black dots, while the slightly open mouth with its visible teeth and pink lips lends the mask a friendly, almost communicative presence. The meticulously crafted ears complete the naturalistic overall impression. Small cracks, abrasions, and minor imperfections document the object's history of use and point to its integration into ritual performances.
