Gold tone Venetian carnival colombina mask with painted ornaments and huge white feathers. Minimal composition - a mask on a light colored pastel back
Colombina mask is a half-face mask that mainly covers the wearer’s eyes, nose and upper cheeks. It can be held up either by ribbons, which let your hands-free or by a small stick which makes it easier to put on and off. Colombina masks can have different designs. Some are decorated with feathers, to add mystery and sensuality to the mask, while others are made of metal, applying light layers of precious metals such as gold and silver. Colombina can be literally translated as “little-dove” and is a character of the Commedia dell’Arte. In the Italian Comedy of Art, every mask is linked to a character and Colombina plays the role of a maidservant and mischievous scheming soubrette. She is witty and down-to-earth and often interacts with other masks
