The dancer's hands rest lightly on its knees, anchoring the viewer's gaze with a sense of poised stillness. The carved bear mask features a wide, grinning mouth and sharply defined ocular planes. The strap of the bear mask is particularly effective, carved with such precision that it appears to press into the head, creating the illusion of an indentation across the carefully chiseled hair.Provenance
