Description Originally created for a photo shoot, this mask combines the themes of previous plague doctor masks that I have done, meshing an ornate, baroque texture with an apocalyptic theme. A winged Death wearing a crow's skull graces the bridge of the beak, spreading arms across it to release swarms of flies. A larger gold fly is the centerpiece of the beak itself. Worms can be seen in one corner, peaking out from under Death's robes. Under the chin a number of plague rats writhe. Deep fissures are apparent around the mask's left lens, which also features a bright red and gold biohazard symbol.

This mask was entirely hand sculpted from sculpting resin and is a one-of-a-kind piece. It measures roughly 5 1/2" across the eyes and 8 1/4" from forehead to chin. It has an artist's mark on the back along with the date it was created.

This mask is $290 and may be found here- www.etsy.com/listing/175794475…
