Mask25.0/223

This small mask representing a female with parted hair was made to fit a child. It was worn by one of the children of the Woman Giving Birth in the atlakim dance. The modelling is direct and bold, and the typically Kwakwaka'wakw painting in strong colors contrasting with white background contributes to the effect of great vitality. (Holm, Crooked Beak of Heaven, 1972)
