An African mask for serious collectors
Authentic African mask,
Handmade African Statue Dogon Bombou-Toro 126
Authentic African mask,
Characteristic of the central part of the Bandiagara cliff, Bombou-toro, this hermaphroditic figure is
distinguished by the circular block of shoulders, long slender limbs, conical chest, and scarified motifs.
Crusty matte patina. Inlaid libatory deposits. Cracks.
Sculpted for the most part on commission by a family, Dogon statues can also be the object of worship by
the entire community when they commemorate, for example, the founding of the village. However, their
functions remain little known. Alongside Islam, Dogon religious rites are organized around four main cults:
the Lebe, relating to fertility, under the spiritual authority of the Hogon; the Wagem, cult of the ancestors
under the authority of the patriarch; the Binu invoking the spirit world and led by the Binu priest; and the
society of masks concerning funerals
