Masker Lukwakongo - Lega - DR Congo
Made of hardwood, decorated with kaolin in the eye sockets and with a fiber beard, this mask is probably of a type that Daniel Biebuyk classified as Nenekisi, which means “lord of the earth.” Like most Lega masks, it was not made to be worn on the face, but was normally hung from the arm or carried in a “medicine bag.”
Provenance: Manuel Morte, Padres Blancos (missionaires)
Argiles collection, Barcelona
