Masks of Mexico and Guatemala

 

Animal mask

Guatemala

9 inches, painted wood

Q: Bought it real cheap. I don’t have a CLUE where it would be from or what kind of animal it is.  Sue, 2-2-12, 294
A: It's probably Guatemalan, but the 3 holes way at the top of the forehead don't make sense. Ask someone who specializes in Guatemalan material to comment on it. If they say it is not Guatemalan, it's going to be a difficult call. It does look like authentic folk art, not a  tourist item.
