I’ll go with a simpler explanation than most on this thread.
The artist didn’t like women disfiguring their faces with “beauty patches” and was saying that they were making themselves look like African tribeswomen.
I feel similarly about young women today disfiguring their bodies with graffiti.
“The patterns on their faces marked “a sin of pride,” according to the statement.”

Your extremely simplistic ‘explanation’ is fraught with error. How did you manage to get your racial explanation????? The ‘Sin of Pride,’ was all the way back in the Garden Of Eden.......
Unless you’re willing to say Eve was the First black woman.....
....by the way....the genetic make-up of every single racial group *was* in Adam, hence would be in Eve..... just a thought.....
The ‘Sin of Pride,’ is in every single racial grouping, however......
