Côte d'Ivoire, Baule people, mid-20th century, very attractive anthropo-zoomorphic dance mask featuring a beautiful human face remarkable for the purity of its features, the elegance of its lines and the concavity of its horns. A combination of man and animal, this mask evokes the "Yu" spirits, intermediaries between gods and men.
Note the perfect balance of forms, the beautiful internal patina attesting to its age and the overall finesse of execution.
Height 41 cm (53 cm with base). The scale indicator on the last photograph is a small model of a lighter from a well-known brand.
Good overall condition, apart from normal wear and tear that has no effect on aesthetics.
