Monkey masks and other representations of monkeys are intimately associated with the Baule. Their carving is among the most refined and restrained in Africa, and the simplicity and refined rendering of this mask is a fine example of their best craft. Monkey masks are rare among the Baule, whose Mbra cult includes the creation and veneration of many simian sculptures. According to the Baule, monkeys are the link between civilized world of the village and the dangerous sphere of the wild bush.
