Mask inspired by the Tlingit, Lingit, or Tide People of Canada, established in Alaska on the Pacific Northwest Coast and the islands facing it. The Lingit society is organized into tribes with a very hierarchical society and a matrilineal system. During the second half of the 19th century, masks accompanied ritual dances. Their function may have been protective. Some depict a woman wearing a labret, the prerogative of nobles, others animals known for their qualities. These subjects also decorated totems and headdresses. Matte polychrome patina, locally chipped.
