A cast iron mask of the demon Hannya, an archetypal image of anger, resentment and jealousy revealed in a threatening expression. The character is derived from the play Dojoji in Japanese Noh theatre. The design is strictly adhered to tradition, with eyes glaring and up-turning brows, the mouth open in a snarl revealing long fangs with energetic spontaneity. Minor rust otherwise is in very good condition.
