Yoruba (Nigeria) This type of mask made... - Lot 99 - Varenne Enchères
Yoruba (Nigeria) This type of mask made of over-modelled calabash with fabric covering was in use in the Ekiti region. It is linked to the cult of the Eguns. Our example is of remarkable quality with its triple-crested headdress, its deep patina and its miraculously preserved state. See Réginald Groux Ekiti masks. Stipa Edition Montreuil 2010 H: 31 cm
