Wood mask, 'One Who Has Patience'
Serenity radiates from this elegant mask by Daniel Nyadedzor. Symmetrical line lends grace to the bearded personage. Crowned by a smaller face, the design depicts Dzidudu � "one who has patience" in the language of Ghana's Ewe people. Embossed brass emulates tribal markings, adding texture to an elegant piece.
