Description: A museum quality West African Bambara mask from Mali. The Bambara people, one of the largest ethnic groups in Mali, are renowned for their artistic traditions, including the creation of masks for various ceremonial and ritual purposes. Bambara masks, known for their abstract and geometric designs, often feature elongated faces, bold colors, and intricate patterns. These masks are used in various contexts, including initiation ceremonies, funerals, and agricultural festivals, where they play a vital role in connecting the community with its cultural and spiritual heritage. Don't be fooled by other masks on Ebay that were created purely for souvenir purposes; this is the real deal. Provenance: Thomas McNemar Collection of Calvin Holder, NYC.
