Description
It's Carnival and the birds have come out to party, Don't miss out, join in.
This mask is called the volto (Italian for face) it is the traditional modern Venetian mask: it is often stark white though also frequently gilded and decorated, and is commonly worn with a tricorn and cloak. It is secured in the back with a ribbon. Unlike the moretta muta, the volto covers the entire face including the whole of the chin and extending back to just before the ears and upwards to the top of the forehead; also unlike the moretta muta, it depicts simple facial features like the nose and lips. Unlike the bauta, the volto cannot be worn while eating and drinking because the coverage of the chin and cheeks is too complete

This is so FABULOUS!!! Makes me think of Mardi Gras! Of course the birds will know where the REAL PARTY is... some unsuspecting reveler's head!! :) The mask and the birds are so wonderfully detailed!!! You keep out-doing yourself and I'm continuously amazed at your imagination!!! :):):)
