Impressive Guelede Fon mask from Benin. The composition is particularly successful. The artist who created this work gives us a mask radiating life and strength. He has infused it with all his talent. The figure atop the mask is damaged; an element is missing at the mouth level, see photos. The white face is captivating, its gaze is hypnotic. Some blemishes, sold as is, see photos. The photos are part of the description. A beautiful old and authentic collectible piece, circa 1950.
