The Mangbetu were known for their unique cultural practices and artistic traditions, including their distinctive musical instruments. In this image, the man, dressed in traditional clothing, holds a carved horn modelled from an ivory tusk. The horn, a symbol of power and prestige in Mangbetu society, was used during ceremonial music performances. The intricately designed horn, with its elegant curves and detailed engravings, reflects the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic skills of the Mangbetu people. The 1920s, also known as the Jazz Age, was a time of cultural exploration and innovation.
