$23.34 Shipping Location: LINCOLN, United Kingdom 62- Vtg Antique Wood Carved Decorative Mask Condition: Used. See description and pictures. Description: This is a very special item. The wood is dark ... morereddish like mahogany or rosewood and is heavy. But have no idea what it is. It is elaborately carved but I have no idea what it represents or where it was created. On the sides of the“headdress” are two sea creatures with glass eyes. The teeth appear well seated. There’s a scratch on the left cheek near the ear. Looking at the back; there is a hanging hook, but the way it is carved with a“v” slot, it could have been made to balance on a peg on the wall. It obviously was not made to wear. Whether the eyes are missing or not, I don’t know… Probably, because the sockets are rather rough. Measures 10½” tall x 7” across. Thanks for looking and please check out our other listings.

3 Books on Ancient Arts: Greek Statues, Venus de Milo, Byzantine Antiques & Arts
Three Books& Catalogs on Ancient Art- DISCUSSION: This lot consists of: Greek Beauty" by Berenice Geoffroy-Schneiter(Assouline: 2003) Goddess. Nymph, muse, or merely mortal, women never ceased to inspire Greek sculptors and painters. Far from representing an ideal beauty of young athletes with exultant bodies, these sensuous feminine models recount to us the ambiguous notions the Greeks had toward women. From a Pompeian fresco of Sappho to a terracotta bust of Aphrodite, and from a pure gold wreath to a bronze mirror fashioned in the 16th century BC, the art of the ancient Greeks seems as elegant and profound as ever. Many of the color plates seen here reveal the fascination that the female form held for Greek sculptors. Showing both the fascination and repulsion, eroticism and damnation, this small work in pictures offers a synthesis ... moreof art and beauty through what is perhaps the most inspired period of all times: ancient Greece. Hardcover. 6.5"x9" 79 pages, color illustrations, dust jacket. Fine condition. Disarmed. The Story of the Venus de Milo" by Gregory Curtis(Alfred A. Knopf: 2003) The Venus de Milo is both a great work of art and a popular icon. And from the moment of her discovery in 1820 by a French naval ensign, she has been an object of aesthetic and archeological controversy. Using memoirs, letters, and official accounts, Gregory Curtis introduces readers to Venus as she was unearthed by a farmer, digging for marble building blocks on the Aegean island of Melos at the moment a young officer and amateur archeologist looking for classical relics happened by. Curtis tells how the island's elders fought with their Turkish overlords over who owned Venus, and how the French pressed their claim, outwitting other suitors to bring her to the Louvre, where she became an immediate celebrity. Curtis's depiction of Europe in the early 19th century, caught in the grip of a classical art mania, reveals just how far the Louvre was prepared to go to prove it had the greatest classical
