No cracks or damages. From the website (alice masks com): In more recent years, whilst still producing works based on his already- known designs, Agostino has turned his attention to portrait-masks, which have their origins in the Venetian tradition of emulating public persons. Always beginning with reality, he creates several types based on common faces, elaborating only with decoration and the cut of the mask. In the process, he has developed several decorative techniques using materials such as fabric, lace, withered flowers and flowers in fabric. His work goes far beyond the usual definition of a mask , especially in the multiple compositions with several faces, which can become objects of interior decoration and are part of a broader artistic expression. Those who know Agostino Dessì personally and who are familiar with his work, know just how much he seeks continuous evolution. Each object he encounters, especially the antique, is an inspiration for new subjects, techniques, colours and forms. Agostino Dessì’s pieces are not merely masks, they are also contemporary sculptures. Please ask any questions/look at all pictures and description carefully before purchasing.
