    I believe this sculpture is from the SENUFO Peoples of North Ivory Coast, Africa. This is a heavy wood carving of a bird on the head of a man. The man has been adorned with shells, feathers, human hair, red and white paint. I do not know anything about it. Any experts out there? I would love to know more! Thank you in advance!
