Description
Plaster death mask.
Goal
To design a box that can store and exhibit the death mask without requiring the removal or re-positioning of the mask.
Treatment
A custom, cloth-covered box with a drop-front was constructed to fit the dimensions of the mask and foam filler. Foam was carved to accommodate the mask and then covered with unbleached muslin.
