An evocative wooden replica of the 16th century ivory mask from the ancient kingdom of Benin. The King of Benin wore the original ivory mask as a pectoral on royal ceremonial occasions. The tiara formation at the crest of the mask symbolizes the King's divine suzerainty. This is one of the best-known pieces of African art.
