Item Description
This engaging antique grotesque or demonic mask is quite the decorative piece. Hand carved into limestone, its details are superbly distinctive, the eyes appearing to follow you as you move around the room…
Portraying a hellfire or God-like presence, this antique mask dates from the 18th century or earlier. It likely once decorated the walls of a notable building or garden with its imposing form and neoclassical style. Today, it is an antique item of decorative statuary for an interior or gallery, mounted on a limestone plinth to showcase its beauty up close.
Provenance: Once part of a private collection in Oxfordshire.
