26. Nepali Mask Nepal 19th c. wood height: 10 inches |
 Detail: view from the left This mask from the Nepal Middle Hills, appears to represent a king, or perhaps the crown or headdress is meant to represent a shaman's headgear. The simple carving and high gloss patina are typical of the fine priminitive or tribal masks of Nepal. The nose has been repaired (old restoration). Detail: view from the back |
