This carved wood mask does not represent a single, identifiable animal.
这件雕刻木面具并不代表一种单一、可辨识的动物。

It is composed of elements from different animals and represents a "bush spirit," emphasizing that it has no counterpart on earth.
它由来自不同动物的元素组成，代表一个“丛林之灵”/“荒野之灵”，强调它在地球上没有对应物。

It is a thing of the "bush" – and things of the bush are male and ungovernable.
属于荒野的事物——荒野的事物是男性且难以控制。

The mask bears some of the classic details of a bovine head, horns extending from the back and an open jaw with a prominent tongue and teeth.
面具带有牛头的经典特征：从后部伸出的角、张开的颚部，露出突出的舌头和牙齿。

A vine cord is wound around the neck, which is unpainted.
颈部缠绕着藤蔓绳，未涂漆。

The small horns are painted black, with carved striations and white tips.
小角涂成黑色，刻有条纹，尖端为白色。

There are two small, protruding eyes and a raised central crest.
有两只小而凸出的眼睛，以及凸起的中央额脊。

Stripes of black, white, and red paint animate the face.
黑、白、红色涂料的条纹使脸部生动起来。

This mask constitutes the second in a series of four masks still performed as entertainment by the Baule peoples of central Côte d’Ivoire.
这面具是四面仍由科特迪瓦中部的布莱族人民表演的四面面具中的第二面。

The dance series is known as Goli, and this mask as Goli Glin.
这支舞蹈系列被称为Goli，而这面具则称为Goli Glin。

The mask is worn with an ample costume of woven green palm fronds that emphasizes the association with wild nature.
面具配有一套由编织绿棕榈叶制成的宽大服饰，强调与野性自然的联系。

There is no possible way that this costume could be preserved: Baule men always make them just before they are used, and this seems to be part of the meaning of the performance.
这一套服饰不可能被保存：布勒男性总是在使用前才制作，这似乎也是表演含义的一部分。

During the performance, this mask is one of a pair of identical masks that emerge from the forest together, where bush spirits abide, to enter the village.
在演出中，这面具是成对的相同面具之一，一同从森林中出现，荒野之灵居所之地，进入村庄。

The long horns, open jaws and teeth are supposed to inspire fear.
长角、张开的颚和牙齿被认为能引发恐惧。

While women and children are allowed to see these masks they avoid getting too close to them.
尽管妇女和儿童被允许观看这些面具，但她们尽量不靠得太近。

In contrast, when Kpan, the fourth mask in the series, and the senior female mask, appears in the form of a beautiful female face, women surround it and dance with it.
相比之下，当系列中的第四面面具Kpan以及成年女性的面具有美丽女性面孔的形态出现时，女性会围绕它并与之共舞。
