Dimitri André

Masque Mapiko - MAKONDE - Mozambique

H= 28 cms,  L=26 cms

Bois léger patiné belle patine de long usage, bonne ancienneté.
Accidents et manques et réparations visibles sur les photos.
Il s'agit d'une représentation de commerçant musulman assez commun dans le panel des masques Makondé.

La face intérieure montre une belle patine d'usage de portage.
La finesse des parois (fragilisés, cassés et fêlées par endroit) atteste de son ancienneté.

Les Masques Makonde sont dansés en relation avec de nombreux événements de la vie sociale, et plus particulièrement l'initiation des jeunes garçons.
Le réalisme du travail de sculpture se réfère à des portraits .
