I bet you'd prefer that this one left you in peace. It is a Nepalese Hindu demon, a mask that was on sale at a fundraiser for the Mitrata Nepal Foundation last weekend. You have probably noticed the logo and link at the bottom of the right sidebar. We have supported a young woman in Kathmandu for 8 or 9 years. Now she has finished high school and is about to take the entrance exam for college. She is posing here with Mrs. C.
The other pictures are of Nepalese batik fabric and rolled Buddhist prayer flags.
One of STL's biggest annual photo ops today. Pix tomorrow.
A fascinating look to that mask.
ReplyDeleteA frightening mask.
ReplyDeleteYour wife and you are very generous. Congratulations to the young woman.
