EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases a page from a manufacturers catalogue of human and animal carnival masks, dating back to the late 19th century. The image is bursting with an array of colorful and intricately designed masks that were once crafted in Mannebach, Thuringe, Germany. The assortment of masks depicted includes various animals such as dogs, wolves, leopards, lions, donkeys, camels, goats, polar bears, monkeys, foxes and horses. Each mask exudes its own unique charm and character; some are adorned with moustaches or beards while others portray devilish or demonic features. These exquisite masks served as disguises during festive carnivals and celebrations. They allowed individuals to transform themselves into different creatures or characters for entertainment purposes. Whether it was masquerading as a mischievous cat or embodying the strength of a majestic lion – these masks provided an opportunity for people to temporarily escape reality. The attention to detail in each mask is truly remarkable; from the intricate patterns on the fur of a wolf's face to the delicate contours of a horse's snout. This photograph not only captures the beauty of these handmade creations but also offers us insight into historical German craftsmanship. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of old-world charm and elegance at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris France - this print transports us back in time to witness the artistry behind these stunning carnival masks.
