Color:

This is a gilt-bronze ‘mask’, examples of the influence of Louis XIV’s court on European art and design.Referring to it just as a mask is perhaps slightly misleading as, measuring 51 x 57 cm, it is much too large and heavy for a person to actually wear. It is instead a sculptural piece that was probably intended to function as decoration for a fountain. There is no lower jaw, which suggests that it may have been designed to have a water spout coming out from its ‘mouth’. The hole you can see below the mask’s right ear may have been used to fix it to the fountain.
