<p>[QUOTE=&quot;2manybooks, post: 891459, member: 8267&quot;]It may be a mask from Liberia/Ivory Coast, from the Guere/Ngere/We people. The distinctive feature is the pair of horns curving from the sides to the center of the forehead. It looks like it had attachments around the back edge, which may indicate it was actually used (as opposed to made for sale). Also looks like it originally had a beard of animal fur attached at the chin. Not a real refined example, but these were made to be scary.</p><p><img src="https://www.hamillgallery.com/GUERE/Guere09.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><a href="https://www.hamillgallery.com/GUERE/Guere09.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.hamillgallery.com/GUERE/Guere09.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.hamillgallery.com/GUERE/Guere09.html</a></p><p><img src="https://www.artkhade.com/media/jpg/420/6OS4c22s/6OS4c22s.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><a href="https://www.artkhade.com/en/object/050429/3AdLr3/a-guere-mask-liberia" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.artkhade.com/en/object/050429/3AdLr3/a-guere-mask-liberia" rel="nofollow">https://www.artkhade.com/en/object/050429/3AdLr3/a-guere-mask-liberia</a></p><p><img src="http://www.davidmalikarts.com/gallery/328.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><a href="http://www.davidmalikarts.com/arte/guere-we-wobe-mask" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.davidmalikarts.com/arte/guere-we-wobe-mask" rel="nofollow">http://www.davidmalikarts.com/arte/guere-we-wobe-mask</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
