Maschera lega - Lega - Repubblica Democratica del Congo

This mask is special, as it does not correspond to the classic prototype of Lega masks. The shape is oval, the forehead is broad and furrowed with rows of small round holes, each row in the shape of a fleur-de-lis with the nose as the stem; the lower rows delineate semicircular upper eye sockets, deep and very wide, within which there are large, there are large, bulging, oval eyes, open with two eyebrows marked by notches; the nose, long and rectangular, with a flat upper part with notches, crossed lines representing tribal tattoos; the cheeks, full, convey a sense of abundance; at the end of the nose and cheeks, a slightly protruding mouth, open, elongated elliptical in shape, with teeth marked with notches around their entire perimeter; the chin, broad, ends in a point at the oval of the face. From the remains, it appears that the mask had a beard of white feathers. It shows clear signs of tribal use. Provenance: Medicus Mundi missonaires Argiles Collection, Barcelona
