With two dark horns pointed toward the sky, this arresting mask from West Africa's Robert Aidoo-Taylor is sure to impress. The artisan names the mask Yaa Asantewaa, a Ghanaian phrase meaning "warrior who led the Ghanaian Ashantis to war." Aidoo-Taylor hand carves the mask from local ofram wood and paints it a verdant green.
