Garuda Mask, the sacred eagle
Garuda is the mythical eagle that serves as the mount of the god Vishnu in Hindu tradition, symbolizing strength, speed, and absolute devotion. In many temples in southern India, his silhouette is sculpted or painted facing the entrance, as a protector of the place.
This papier-mâché wall mask embodies his characteristic features, handcrafted and painted by Indian artisans: molded, naturally dried, then detailed painting with a fine brush.
Each piece has slight variations in painting, a sign of entirely manual work where no two pieces are identical. A format that stands on its own or pairs very well with other masks from the collection.
