Miniature Mask

Cleveland Museum of Art

Miniature Mask by unidentified artist. The mask is made of dark green stone, possibly jade. It has a smooth, glossy surface with visible scratches and marks. The mask depicts a human face with closed eyes, a nose, and a mouth. The facial features are carved into the stone, with defined eyebrows, and nostrils. The mask has a small hole on each side, near the ears. The background is gray, with a darker shade at the top and a lighter shade at the bottom. The mask sits on a flat surface.
