DAN, IVORY COAST. Dan mask, Ivory Coast. The harmony of Dan masks, summed up here in this late work. The softness of the modeling is matched by the elongated oval of the face with its naturalized features, the rounded forehead, prominent cheekbones and full lips magnifying the overall beauty. A fine, slightly raised median ridge linked to the triangular nose divides the forehead and face into two parts. The finely and delicately engraved eyebrow arches, following gentle curves, intensify the expressiveness, while the eyes, signified by two linear incisions, lend the mask an interiority. The periphery is richly decorated with an elaborate, braided headdress. Wood, fabric, plant fibers. Height 25.5 Width 20 cm Provenance: Claude Ferrand surrealist collection. Expert: Madame Aurore Krier-Mariani.
