<p>[QUOTE=&quot;April07, post: 1370844, member: 7302&quot;]Thanks [USER=2844]@Any Jewelry[/USER]. I am an art historian, and rather in modern and contemporary topics, but happy to help where I can. This mask with its red nose and the moustache for me is very much reminiscent of the masks of the Danza de los moros y los cristianos, a folk dance that represents the encounter between pagans and Spanish conquistadors and is practised in different states of Mexico.&nbsp; However, in the masks that I saw, the holes for the eyes of the dancer are rather narrow and the eyes are painted underneath, like in this one (not the best example, but don&#039;t find a better one right now):</p><p><img src="https://www.maskmuseumsma.com/style/images/masksforsale/masksforsale1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; </p><p>So, the mask that [USER=12007]@blooey[/USER] found looks closer to the style of the mask in question I think. I will continue exploring if I find out some more information, I will be back <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
