Descrizione : A Cameroon Grasslands helmet mask. Cameroon, Bamileke. 20th century. 16h x 12w x 9 1/2d. Provenance: Inventory and Collection from the Estate of Merton D. Simpson. Catalog Notes: Cameroon royal masks are distinctive in their design. Monumental in size with bulging cheeks and openwork hairstyle, Cameroon royal masks represent the power and nobility of their owner. Some examples were so massive that they were never danced but only carried in procession. The masker peers through a scarf-like fabric positioned below the mask. The elegant carving and highly refined features of this mask may point to it having been created in or near Laikom.
