African Art Home Decor carved wooden mask A Guru Mask or Baoule mask-30/15.5 CM
The 20,000 MASK Yohure inhabit the central region of the Côte d’Ivoire MASK, the territory between the White and Red MASK Bandama Rivers, to the east of the city of Bouafle. The Yohure are geographically and linguistically situated between the Baule, an Akan language group to the east, and the Guro MASK and Gban (MASK Gagu), southern Mande-speaking peoples to the west. Depending upon their proximity to their neighbors, the inhabitants of Yohure villages are either entirely Baule or Mande speaking. Villages are generally associated with one clan African mask whose forehead is divided by a vertical ridge. This is a striking feature of statuary from the area between the Guro and the Bétés. The hairstyle is neatly represented by parallel streaks. This vintage african mask, whose function remains poorly documented, would symbolize masculine strength, and perhaps also a powerful notable named "migone". Glossy dark patina, desiccation crack. The Bété form a tribe established on the left bank of the Sassandra Riverin the south-west of the Ivory Coast. Close to the Kouya and the Niabwa, the making of their vintage african mask, as well as theirfunction, have great similarities. The Bété are divided into ninety-three ethnic groups and belong to the Krou group, like the Wé and the Dida. Practicing the cult of the bagnon, they wear vintage african mask provoking terror, called Gré, with a domed forehead and sometimes also a horned head, in order to protect themselves spirits.
