Traditionnal belgian mask from the city of Stavelot. Those who wear that are called : "Les blancs moussis" (5 years and 2652 days ago)

I think in color it would have worked much better! In black and white, what decorates the mask looks more like smudges, but of-course I may be wrong

Jer....you're absolutely right. See what you think of this one......same image, just in color.
That is cool, but it looks more like asculpture than a mask - made of stone. No holes for eyes or mouth etc.
OMG, you're right !!! Lol ... It was shot in a "Mask museum" thats why I didn't figure it !!! I'll changeit ! Thanks for your comment !

I beg to disagree, kyricom. Holes for the eyes and mouth are not required, by the definition.
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mask
They don't even have to be face masks. Some are body or finger masks according to wikipedia.
Howdie stranger!
