This is the rating and price for African Senufo/Kalongo Antelope Mask, 1875

Description : Senufo people, Ivory Coast: An impressively large, finely carved mask of a long-horned antelope, circa 1875. The geometrically abstracted face is incised with tribal abstract designs, with the ears and horns extending in graceful arcs. The patina shows use and careful handling. Early 20th Century, carved wood on a custom-made steel stand. The Senufo are famous as carvers of highly-stylized wood sculpture. The art of Senufo people inspired twentieth-century European artists such as Pablo Picasso and Fernand Léger, who owned Senufo masks and used their abstract features for the basis of Cubism. Senufo art has become a category for art collectors and scholars, a symbol of the artistic traditions of West Africa. Old pieces of Senufo art are found in many leading museums of the world. This piece will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
