Guro Yaure Portrait Passport Mask Cote d'Ivoire African Art-
27.7/12.2 CM
African masks of this type often bear a small gallinaceous
mask
bird on the head to awaken the dawn. This theme is taken up again and again in many variants, presenting a rooster
mask
, a hen, a stork, a hornbill and sometimes even several heads. The exceptional beauty of this mask is due to the master sculptor, who has shown a consummate art, the bulging and drooping eyes, the slightly protruding mouth and a beautiful general symmetry of shapes. These masks are the prerogative of famous dancers and are recognised for their beauty and political importance. In the criteria of physical and moral beauty, the lowered eyes and tight lips imply respect and recollection, two moral qualities that the Baule
mask
hold in high regard.
