Caribbean Devil mask Mardi gras, Haiti 17 in., papier mache, paint The African influence found in all Caribbean art can be seen in this excellent Haitian helmet mask. Here the pre-Lenten carnival is known by its French name. You see plenty of wood and leather tourist masks from Haiti, but large papier mache of the wild and crazy type are made for the locals to use... not for tourists. It is a full helmet mask that fits over the head and rests on the shoulders. Excellent condition. $175
