Vintage Mexican Folk Art Painted Mask

$585.00
| /

A captivating piece of Mexican vernacular art, this mask is crafted from shaped and painted sheet metal (tin). Unlike typical carved wooden masks, this piece relies on repoussé to create the textured curls of the beard and hair. The paint is vibrant but weathered, showing layers of history and use, giving it a raw, expressive energy. This mask is a powerful piece of wall sculpture. At 15.5 inches high, it is large enough to hold its own on a narrow wall or as the anchor of a gallery wall mixed with other global artifacts or Spanish colonial Adobe design.
