Surya Rutten

南部及中部非洲的面具與符號

这面面具的具体特征包括：延长的、尖细的下巴和圆锥形的眼睛。
我相信J. Cornet的分类是正确的。该面具是盲的，因此被戴在头上，向后仰倾，使佩戴者能够看见下颚下方。眼眶让人联想到某些 Tshokwe 面具（Mwana Pwo 与 Tshihongo），它们被涂上放射状条纹，圆锥形的眼睛从基部到尖端有条纹。位于下睑以下、从鼻基部开始，在两侧斜向下共有三条白色条纹，鼻小柱处还有一条，从小圆形、突出口部长到鼻基部的条纹。在发际之上，从一个圆形模具开始，面具以一束羽毛收束而结束。在发型边缘、模具边缘，以及口腔和耳朵内部都留有 tukula 的痕迹。面具的太阳穴前方在颞部有圆锥形装饰。
就体量和做工而言，这面具都异常技艺高超，而在其简化的夸张畸变中，给人以平静的惊奇感和庄严感。

Specific features of this mask are: an elongated, pointed chin and conical eyes.
I believe that J. Cornet's classification is correct. The mask is blind,
so it was worn on the head, tilted backwards so that the wearer could see
underneath the chin. The eye sockets, reminiscent of those of some Tshokwe masks
(Mwana Pwo and Tshihongo), are painted with radial stripes and the conical eyes with
stripes from base to tip. Below the subciliary eye sockets, starting from the base of the nose,
there are three white stripes sloping downwards on each side and another on the columella that runs
from the small, circular, protruding mouth to the base of the nose. Above the hair,
starting from a circular moulding, the mask ends in a bundle of feathers. On the edge of the
hairstyle and the moulding and inside the mouth and ears there are traces of tukula. The mask
has conical decorations on the temples in front of the ears.
The mask, both in its volume and in its execution, is extraordinarily virtuosic,
and in its schematic caricature-like deformity it gives the impression of placid amazement
and dignity.
