This pair of New Orleans Mardi Gras masks reveal our various moods. This mask appears to be a combination of a Greek theatric melpo mask.
In a historical sense, there are two names for each mask. The name Melpomene represents the tragedy mask or Muse of Tragedy and the name Thalia represents the comedy mask or Muse of Comedy. Melpo is the shorter name for Melpomene, meaning a celebration of dance and song.
This unique and curious mask artwork pair is an unusual piece that will draw a great deal of attention displayed in your home. I can't decide if it's creepy or fabulous! Each mask is heavy cast brass. The back of each breeds Mardi Gras New Orleans basiris.
This fabulous pair of heavy cast brass mask have been adorned with two swatches of gold and Royal Blue Ribbon. Each mask measures approximately 7 in top to bottom and are about 4.5 in across. These masks will protrude from the wall approximately 2.5 in.
