This is a magnificent Dan Gunye Ge or Gunyeya mask (also designated by ‘running mask’) with its dark patina, is originated from the Dan Tribe of the Ivory Coast. Masks are the most important art form of the Dan. Many of the other forms of sculpture are derived from the mask and what the mask symbolizes. Numerically, more masks are created than any other form of sculpture. Spiritually, masks are perceived to embody the most powerful of spirit forces. Socially, masks are the means of bringing control and order to village life. Masks provide the strongest impressions of a young Dan person's earliest experience, as their importance is reinforced by their presence at all significant events. An exceptional mask to add to your collection or home.
