Description
(Original Caption) Congo: Native Dancers. Tired out from a frenzied dance, another Mbuya dance performer rests in the circle formed by the native audience. In heavily bearded mask and skirt of rafia and monkey skins, he's playing Kore, who invokes the blessing of the gods at sowing and harvest time. Seed clusters on his ankles rattle as he dances.
