Masks of Mexico and Guatemala

 

Moor mask

Moors and Christians Dance, Guerrero

8 inches, painted wood

Moors are sometimes portrayed with fair skin, as is this one. Even more unusual is the large nose and small goatee that have both been nailed on. (Mexican carvers usually work with a single piece of wood.) A large, comfortable mask to wear, it also displays well on the wall. Does not appear to have been used.
