Description: African Dan Hornbill Gagon Mask - Ivory Coast - African Tribal Art 18”x8”x5.5” The hornbill is an important bird in many West African cultures. It is regarded as an object lesson in marital fidelity -- since it mates for life -- and parenthood, since it protects its young courageously in the face of danger. Hornbill masks are used to inculcate these family values in the young through dance and song. I acquired this along with a huge African Art estate collection.
