Descripción : Large carved wooden mask in the shape of a Gorilla skull , from the Kwele of Gabon, Africa. The gon, an especially fierce type of ekuk mask, exaggerates the salient features of a gorilla skull. Gon-wearing dancers were armed with weaponry, and their wild, aggressive behavior necessitated their being physically restrained.
