Descubra la tasación y los precios de esta y más obras de arte africano en Africartmarket. Vuvi Face Mask, 1995



Descripción : Vuvi or Sango, Gabon, H: 13Of classical form, finely carved with remains of black pigment on the hairline, brow, and chin. Remaining red and white pigment throughout. Comments: Masks of this particular type have often been attributed to the Vuvi or Pove people in Gabon, however Siroto depicts a very similar mask that he attributes to the Northern Sango (Siroto, 1995). Siroto likens masks of this type to the white faced masks of the Ogowe River area, and suggests a possible analogous function. The arching brows and simple smiling face of this mask are pleasing and well proportioned, while the carver displayed an adept ability in balancing these seemingly simple constituent parts into a truly complex whole.
