Tutte le aste / Arte Asiatica / Tibetan wall masks - copper, metal and stone - Tibet, Kathmandu - 20th century


This type of craftsmanship is characteristic of the spiritual and tribal art from the Himalayan region. The masks depict important deities from Hinduism and Buddhism: Left mask: This depicts Ganesha, the recognizable Hindu god with the elephant trunk. He symbolizes wisdom, prosperity and is the remover of obstacles. Between his eyes you can see the 'third eye' (Trinetra) of spiritual insight. Right mask: This depicts a Buddha face or a wrathful protector deity (such as Mahakala or Bhairava). This type of mask is often hung at the entrance of homes in the region to ward off evil and provide protection. Thanks to the detailed metal-wire decorations (a technique similar to cloisonné) and the inlaid eyes of bone or stone, these are popular decorative collectibles. good condition, the right Buddha is missing 3 small stones. Back has a bit of green patina. Photos are part of the description. Will be well packed and shipped with a track and trace code.
