Masks of Xipe Totec. From Mexico, possibly 19th century AD. These masks are intended to represent Xipe Totec, an Aztec god of fertility, usually represented wearing a flayed human skin, but their unusual details suggest it is also possible that they were made in the nineteenth century to satisfy a growing interest in Mexican art. 21 x 24.5 cm (left); 23 x 26 cm (right).
