Qinqiang Opera Facial Masks
Qinqiang Opera facial masks are crafted based on the characters in Qinqiang opera. Today, they have evolved into a set of standardized artistic techniques. For instance, color usage follows specific conventions—red for loyalty, black for uprightness, pink for treachery, and gold for divinity—to reflect character traits. These masks are not only delicate and intricate handicrafts but also valuable resources for studying the art of Qinqiang opera and local folk customs. (Xi'an)
