The mask on its side and the white ring of the eye
A painted mask lies on its side on a white surface. The face is copper-brown, with areas painted black and a white ring at the eye. Under it, black cloth shows green, gold, and silver pieces.
The mask rests on the cloth, not on a face. Black paint covers a ridged band and a smooth bar on the face. The white ring circles one eye opening. Strands of silver leaf-shaped pieces lie on the black cloth, which also has green and gold shapes. Clear plastic bags sit above the cloth. A hand shows at the left edge and a knee at the bottom. The surface underneath is white.
