Venetian Masquerade Masks

The usage of Venetian masquerade masks originated from Venice, Italy for their holiday. This type of mask was worn in the Carnival that was first documented as far back as the 13th century.

In the carnival in Venice, people used masks to hide their true faces and be in a position to mingle with folk of different social standings. This way their identity and social standing are kept hidden away. This is true also for today's masquerade parties where Venetian masquerade masks are worn. Wearing of Venetian masks was more favoured by the higher classes during the past centuries.

Except for hiding the identity of the wearers, males and females may be able to experiment sexually without the fear of being recognised. Anyone that admires someone is able to express their love or feelings without having to show his or her face. Folk tend to say more and become more truthful when they wear masks. They can do what they want more unreservedly and inhibitions are released.

The modern Venetian masks, just like the Venetian masks worn back in 13th century are distinguished by their complicated designs. They're featured with bright colours accented with gold or silver. The majority of the designs of the Venetians are adopted from Commedia dell'arte. These masks are of different shapes and they may also be full-face masks such as Bauta or eye masks such as Columbina.

Venetian masquerade masks can be made of 1 or 2 materials like plasters, leather and paper mache. They are sometimes hand painted that have fabric trims, jewels and other materials to improve them.

Aside from the examples of Venetian masquerade masks that were mentioned, other types of these masks are Volto or Larva, Moretta, Medico Della Peste or"The Plague Doctor" and others. The classical long nose kind of masks is still a well-liked sort of Venetian masquerade masks that are worn at many events.

These sorts of masks have been employed and are famous in the Hollywood. They were used in the flick Eyes Wide Shut where Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are the lead actor and actress.

Venetian masquerade masks are still being worn by many people who attend masquerade balls to bring elegance and beauty to those who wear them.
