Ivory Coast, Dan, face mask, deangle, mask with forehead ridge, narrow slit eyes in between curved and tapering recesses for the eye-slits with remains of chalk. A small broad nose and two curved and protruding lips with aluminium teeth, a small triangular shaped chin and two rows of rectangular pierced holes on the side. With brown patina with patches of black. Deangle masks represent a friendly female forest spirit and suggest a ideal of feminine beauty. They where danced during boys initiation camps for entertainment and good spirit. Provenance, Charles Ratton, Paris, before 1937 with his four digit white number 1193. Carel van Lier, Amsterdam, from the 1937 exhibition: ‘Cinquante Sculptures Africaines de la Collection Charles Ratton’ with his label: 'Kunstzaal Van Lier Amsterdam no. 31 TCR. '37.' TRC stands for Tentoonstelling Charles Ratton. Bought in 1937 by van Tussenbroek, Haarlem. Private collection The Hague. Also on the lower edge the written number C/2, this number could refer to Hans Himmelheber. There is a mask in the collection of the Tropenmuseum Amsterdam that has the same C2 mark in larger white writing. Himmelheber collected masks from Ivory Coast in situ between 1933-1935. [1] h. 24,5 cm.
