Igbo helmet, Nigeria Africa. Rare and important Igbo Janus crest mask. Surmounted by a double and imposing headdress, carved in the mass of the trunk of the tree of light essence characteristic of this type of mask. This mask glorifies youth and beauty. Its summit sculpture intertwines and combines with virtuosity the symmetrical elements of its perfect composition. It testifies to the perfect mastery of its sculptor, certainly a local master with long experience in the perilous exercise of making this type of rare sculpture. H. 49cm (Africa, African art, Civilization and ethnic groups).
