    Caviar hasn’t always been considered a prestigious dish, despite humanity enjoying it for at least 2000 years. During ancient times, it was not treated as a gourmet delicacy. Its transformation began in the Middle Ages when caviar was used as a meat substitute and preserved in salt to prolong its shelf life. This process created a delicacy that became popular among the aristocracy, particularly in Russia. During the October Revolution in 1917, many Russians fled to France, bringing their beloved delicacy to Europe. The French, enamored by this imported delicacy, recognized it as a prestigious and glamorous dish to be paired with champagne. Thus, caviar became an extremely popular luxury food, but its popularity also led to the near extinction of the best fish for caviar – beluga. Fortunately, its extinction was prevented in the mid-1950s when farmed caviar was successfully introduced to the market. Today, we can still enjoy this exquisite and prestigious delicacy.

    DEATH MASK

    750,00 €

    The creation of death masks is one of the oldest sculptural techniques, serving as a memory of the deceased or as a model for creating portraits. They are made by taking an impression of the face of the deceased in wax or plaster, usually a few hours after death.

    The particular death mask you have is original and made of plaster, depicting an unknown man. It is an unusual addition to any room, carrying significant symbolic meaning (Memento mori). Death masks are undoubtedly one of the most intriguing traditions of humanity, a way for people to preserve the memory of the deceased. The most famous death masks come from Egypt, where they were buried with the deceased. Similarly, ancient Roman masks made of wax are known, used as a model for carving into tombstones. This tradition continues for centuries until the end of the Middle Ages when there was a shift in the material used, and masks began to be made of plaster. During this time, masks started to be used in funeral ceremonies and were later kept in libraries, museums, and universities. Death masks were not only made for royal and noble figures but also for prominent individuals such as poets, philosophers, and playwrights. Similar to ancient Rome, these death masks were often used as references for portraits, sculptures, busts, or engravings depicting the deceased. Dimensions: 26 x 22 cm Weight: 780 g The mask is in excellent condition and has an iron hook for wall mounting.
