Descrizione : Additional Information: ,A well carved Guro face mask with a fearsome crocodile onthe chin. , The mask is painted in multiple paints and the surface is shining. The carved face depicts a human visage with finial details that recall a Guro style.  , The Guro of the Ivory Coast (Cote D'Ivoire) are related to the Baule, and there is a resemblance in their masks. The daily life of the Guro is dominated by secret societies called ",zuzu",. Guro masks are elegant, usually long with pointed chins, and generally the most colorful of African masks. Sometimes there are burn marks on them. They are often repainted, so layers of paint are not uncommon. , , Such masks were danced in various ceremonies. They belong to the category of Je masks and are the first to appear to warm up the audience prior to the appearance of the anthropomorphic masks, considered to be the most important during the performance.  ,
