Papier Mache Face Mask
Handmade by Vermont Artist Robin Nuse Vintage
- This is an amazing
papier mache face mask by the late Robin Nuse.
- The mask is signed on
the inside © Robin Nuse 1985.
- Created in 1985, the
mask is an exaggerated man’s face with thick lips, an elongated and bumpy nose,
and wide eye sockets. Eyebrows and hair are presumed from the shape of the
papier mache and the painting.
- Foam pieces on the
inside over the eyes were added for comfort if someone were to wear this.
- Nuse masterfully
created the mask and painted it in peach / mauve colors – the skin tone is a
bit mottled. Lips are a light cranberry color.
- The mask measures 11
inches in length x 6 inches across x about 5-1/2 inches in depth to the tip of
the nose.
- The mask is in
beautiful condition with no holes or tears.
- There are small side
holes attached around back with a piece of elastic if someone wanted to wear
this.
- Small hole at the very
top with a little fishing wire for easy hanging.
- Nuse was a prominent
painter and mask maker who died in 2019. In the late 1980’s she had her own
business called Vermont Masquerades designing and making paper maché animal and
harlequin masks.
- We are selling this for
a friend, who has lovingly owned it but is downsizing and needs to sell some of
his art collections.
