PROVENANCE Acquired from Galerie Kamer, New York, May 19, 1965 EXHIBITED Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Milwaukee Public Museum, Selections from The William W. Brill Colllection of African Art, May 5 - August 31, 1969 (for additional venues see bibliography ) NOTE Cf. Vogel and N'Diaye (1985: 60) for a closely related mask from the Sanga Village from the collection of the Musée de l'Homme, acquired on the Dakar-Djibouti expedition 1931-1933. The satimbe mask is identified by the presence at the crest of the woman representing Yasiguini. She discovered the materials used to construct masks and gave them to Andoumboulou, who are the spirits created by the god Amma. This type of mask is the Dogon replication of the original mythic mask created by Andoumboulou in which the woman was depicted at the top and consecrated as Yasiguini (ibid. : 124).
