Huari Painted Wood Mummy Mask w/ Large Eyes, ex-Museum

Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, southern Peru, Huari (Wari) culture, ca. 600 to 900 CE. A beautiful example of a hand-carved wooden mummy mask of a rounded rectangular form. The mask bears an awe-struck countenance formed with white-painted, almond-shaped eyes with dark brown pupils that bulge from the face and flank a relatively veristic nose. The parted lips reveal a singular line of white teeth beneath an indented philtrum, with rounded cheeks, a protruding chin, and a smooth brow completing the guise. The unpainted forehead suggests it was wrapped with a textile headband at one time. This wooden mask was perhaps attached to the front of a mummy bundle which would have contained the cremated remains of a once-living individual. Size: 4.125" W x 7.2" H (10.5 cm x 18.3 cm)

Display stand shown in photos is for photography purposes only.

Provenance: ex-Ashland University Museum, Ashland, Ohio, USA, donated to Ashland University between July 1994 to December 1998
