Text Appearing Before Image:
FOOI s HEADS, BEVERLEY MINSTER. Some of these are better than the joculators and mimesfaces in which the artist seriously set himself a humorous
Text Appearing After Image:
MASKS AND FACES. 1.33 task, as in the three heads (page 130) from Beverley Minster,though the latter are in some respects more grotesque. Another curious instance of a grimace and posturemaker, assisting his counten-ances contortions by the useof his fingers, is at DorchesterAbbey. In this the artist hasnot been master of the facialanatomy, and shows a doublepair of lips, one pair in repose,the other pulled back at thecorners. Often a °rotesciue face grimace maker, dorchester, oxon. will be found added to a beautiful design of foliage, either asthe conventional mask, as in the design in Lincoln ChapterHouse, or a realistic head, as the following grim, dourvisage between graceful curves on a misericord at KingsCollege, Cambridge.
