Superb LEGA Bwami Idimu MASK
Nice oval mask, the face is coated with kaolin, which emphasizes the typical heart shape of many masks of this tribe.
Very sweet, almost Christ Like expression
This type of mask was used as part of the cult of the Bwami, an association that organized the social structure
and ensured the stability of the Lega community.
The Lega are a Bantu forest people of Central Africa, established in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), in the provinces of South Kivu and Maniema.
