A WOOD AND COWRIE-SHELLS MASK, MUSANGWE
Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tabwa
25 cm high
Provenance: Italian private collection.
Long ignored, the sculptures and masks of the Tabwa ethnic group entered the field of collecting only in the second half of the twentieth century, establishing themselves since then as one of the most evocative artifacts of African art.
