Originally used only by blacksmiths and then also adopted by farmers during the rites for sowing and harvesting, this beautiful and large antelope mask Nyanga is representative of the sculpture of the Bobo for geometric decorations in black and white, square eyes, elongated snout and open mouth accompanied by teeth, today mostly lost.
The very pronounced horns balanced the weight that the dancer had to bear during the swirling dances.
Not particularly ancient, but genuine.
