Dan Toma mask, Guinea

H = 34 cm Price= 2,200 €

Provenance: I got this mask from an old lady who bought on the Sablon - rue des Minimes in Brussels in the early 1970's, but she didn't remember the name of the gallery.

Anyhow the style and patina shows this is a clear old Dan Toma mask end XIXth early XXth. The monkey skin on the beard is missing it's hair, only the skin remains.

Metallic inclusions on the forehead and in one of the eyes

A quite comparable mask is in the Musée de Grenoble inv. MG2176

Comments:

According to Pierron Primitive Arts -a field collector - this mask should be attributed to the Gbandi-Loma from  Libéria or Toma of Guinea instead...
