Oloju foforo mask, the owner of the deep-set eyes in reference to the large holes through which the wearer sees.
This mask can be placed in the stylistic tradition of Bamgboshe of Osi-Ilorin. It can be compared to several works of the sculptor who died around 1920.
Its most obvious reference is the Oloju foforo mask from the Smithsonian National of African Art attributed to the master.
Another mask of this type can be seen in the collection in the British Museum and presents the same painted patterns.
