Maschera Bwete a 6 occhi - Kwele (Senza Prezzo di Riserva)
Mask with 6 eyes of the Kwele tribe from Gabon. The mask is made in wood and decorated with kaolin.
The Kwele are known for their ceremonial masks that are collected as art objects. Kwele masks are called "Ekuk". These masks were hung in the homes and rarely worn except during rare initiation ceremonies to worship "bwété".
The masks can be recognized by their great expression.
Pablo Picasso has been strongly influenced by these traditional African masks during his African period from 1906 to 1909.
