Description : TRIBAL AFRICAN ART MOSSI NORAGO MASK. Burkina Faso. This rooster mask from the Mossi peoples in Burkina Faso was worn during important events in village life. Masks appear during burials, funerals, and initiations, and other important occasions in the annual ritual cycle. Each mask represents an animal, wild or domestic. These characters, whether animal or human, appear in the myths of origin of the lineages that own the masquerades. One of the common features on Mossi masks from this area is a trilobed crest that sweeps back from the top of the head, representing a bird. On rooster masks, the central lobe is ribbed, evoking a rooster's comb. The mask would have been worn like a cap on the head, with an attached fiber or raffia costume. 34.5cm x 16cm
