About the Item

Ceremonial Coyote Mask – Dance of the Morenos, Colima, Mexico Circa 1960. This ceremonial mask represents the Coyote, a symbolic figure associated with intelligence and cunning. The coyote and the coyota form one of the animal pairs featured in the Dance of the Morenos, a traditional ritual dance originating in Suchitlán, Comala, Colima, Mexico. Used in ceremonial performances, this mask reflects the rich symbolic language of the dance, where animal characters embody moral qualities and ancestral narratives. Hand-carved and painted, the expressive features and bold coloration give the piece a strong visual presence while preserving its ritual authenticity. An evocative example of Mexican folk art and ceremonial tradition, ideal for collectors interested in ethnographic objects, ritual masks, or culturally significant sculpture.
