Songye - Repubblica Democratica del Congo
On this mask, the nose extends to the end of the forehead, not so much as a crest but rather as a
low-relief moulding; it could be a male mask. The nose is schematic, rectangular
and rounded; the eye sockets, circular sectors, contain almond-shaped, open eyes; the mouth is
a slightly protruding rectangle containing two circular holes; the nose, frontal moulding, eye sockets
and mouth are painted black; the rest of the mask, with broad curved striations, alternates between
red and white. The mask must have been surrounded by a fabric neck cover, of which some remains are still visible.
Provenance: Padres Blancos missionaires
Argiles Collection, Barcelona
