Mask - Pende - DR Congo (No reserve price)

- Private collection inherited from a Frenchman who traveled in Central Africa in the 1960s-70s.
Having participated in public health missions in remote villages, André has thus been sensitized to the arts of the early peoples, their forms and their uses.
As was often customary, the services rendered were thanked with gifts at departure, including masks, statues and other objects charged with meaning.
The whole of several dozen pieces was also completed by purchases on site in Bujumbura in particular, as well as later in France. -
