"Okuyi Punu Mask Gabon"
Among African art, Punu masks have always been admired for their high artistic quality. These idealized female portraits are worn by dancers on stilts during spectacular performances.I particularly love the serenity and peace emanating from these faces, reminiscent of Buddha.
Height 29 cm, beautiful patina from use; note the exquisite sculpting of the hairstyle, the symmetry, and the perfect beauty of the face, typical of ancient models.
