Mask Makers Web

The magic fascination of Venice is its history, its past, its ever-lasting tradition; it gives life to precious and special forms of art. Of all the expressive forms, the mask is the object which most represents the Venetian spirit, a spirit of feasting and enjoyment. In the wake of this tradition,in Calle dei Nomboli near S. Tom?, opposite the house in which Carlo Goldoni was born,GUALTIERO DALL'OSTO, a graduate of the Accademy of Fine Arts of Venice, keeps this ancient art of mask- making alive in his TRAGICOMICA workshop.
