ABOUT TRIBE/MASK
A Punu-Lumbo mask is a tribal mask native to the Ogooué River basin in Gabon, especially in the south in Ngounié Province. PUNU tribal wooden masks are typically characterized with coiffure and pigmented face, including geometric scarifications. Representing female ancestors, the masks are usually painted white as a symbol for purity and peace.
