Two Masks

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture "Two Masks" by an unknown artist depicts a stone carving featuring two faces and various figures. The left face has curly hair adorned with what appears to be flowers or a floral pattern and its mouth is open. The right side showcases a horse-like creature with a humanoid figure on its back; the rider's face is visible. The background of the image transitions from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The sculpture appears to be made of stone or concrete and exhibits a weathered texture. It is positioned at an angle, with its left side closer to the viewer. The overall composition suggests a scene or story conveyed through these carved elements. The sculpture's surface displays signs of aging and wear. It casts a shadow on the surface below it.
