Product description
This decorative terracotta wall mask, dating back to the mid-20th century, fully expresses the dynamism and expressive power of classical grotesque mascarons. The piece depicts a virile face with a theatrical and dramatic expression, recalling the Renaissance and Baroque sculptural tradition used in period architectural elements. The artifact is hand-modeled with incised details that accentuate its pronounced features: the wavy hair, furrowed brows, and wide, pierced mouth opening, flanked by eye holes. On the back, it is fitted with a solid, original metal hook for easy wall mounting. This collectible vintage piece offers a sought-after opportunity to personalize entrances, rustic living rooms, loggias, or spaces dedicated to artistic craftsmanship. Dimensions: Width 13 cm, Depth 6 cm, Height 19 cm
