Massim spatula by "The Master of the Prominent Eyes"

Bernard de Grunne talking about a Massim spatula by "The Master of the Prominent Eyes", from the Trobriand Islands, Papua New-Guinea. The "Master of prominent eyes" is one of the most archaic and most talented Massim artists, which produced some beautiful anthropomorphic lime spatulas. H. Beran has identified a corpus of at least 10 spatulas by this same hand, all carved during the second half of the 19th century.
