This is a Rare Vintage African Mossi Wango Mask from Burkina Faso. It stands 45.5" with its custom stand, and is 40.5"H x 5"W x 5"D. It features a white pigment and rich, aged patina. The oval face is divided by a sculpted vertical centerline with round eyes on either side, two antelope horns reaching upwards from the top of the face, and a female figure which is dynamically sculpted, especially strong when viewed from the side. This large and complex mask requires great skill to keep upright while being danced.
