Context:

The Mangbetu communities of northern Congo had strong economic ties with the Europeans and Americans who came to their region in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Mangbetu soon developed a market for local crafts and souvenirs that included ceramic vessels decorated with sculpted heads featuring typical hairstyles of Mangbetu women.
