Descrizione : wood, pigments, plant fibre, fabric, rest. A stylistically very similar mask, probably from the same workshop, was auctioned on 11 November 2017 as lot 236 at Zemanek-Münster (AHDRC 0147553). Kpan masks are part of the goli mask ensemble, which can be performed both as an entertainment and for the funerals of important men. The masks kpan appear as the last pair of masks towards the end of the goli festival. With portrait-like faces and elaborate hairstyles, they embody the ideal woman. Kpan (the older woman) is considered the wife of goli glin (= the older man). Kpan's performance is theatrically managed for greatest effect. When they arrive, it is nearly dusk, and women have been dancing and singing through the streets in anticipation, begging kpan to come. The women receive the masks as beloved personages, fanning them with scarves and dancing joyously beside them. Continent: Africa
