African 'maiden spirit' mask from the Punu Peoples of Gabon. This example is inspired by traditional masks representing an idealized portrait of a beautiful woman used in ceremonies, celebrations and performances. It has high lobed coiffure, an expressive face with a serene gaze,and is covered in a white pigment. The mask is hand-carved with white pigment covering the face and is mounted on a custom black metal stand.
