    African Tribal Art Wooden Carved Mask Africa Dan Wooden Mask-23.2/14.8 CM
    The Danes are farmers living in western Côte d'Ivoire and the hinterland of Liberia. They have a large number of masked figures representing the spirit of the jungle who serve various social, political and religious functions. Although 11 separate mask types can be distinguished according to formal criteria, these types cannot be assigned to specific functions because the meaning of masks changes over time. The round features, intricate carvings and finely polished surface features of Dan masks make them the most popular and prized type of all African art. The mask is oval in shape, with a high forehead, raised eyebrows, prominent and rounded mouth, and is beautifully carved, indicating that it is the work of the Beidan people. The northern racing masks (gunye ge) and fire masks (zakpei ge) feature rounded eyes that allow the wearer to have a clear view.
