Bring a unique look to your living space with our burnished bronze Plague Doctor Sculpture. This striking, steampunk-inspired decoration depicts one of the most famous masks in history with a sleek, modern design.
Plague doctors throughout Europe often wore masks like these, as the hooked beak was supposed to symbolise a raven. Ravens were considered to be holy birds between the 14th and 17th centuries. The idea was to ward off plague-causing "miasmas" (bad smells) sent by God to punish the population for its sins.
Perfect for collectors and plague doctor enthusiasts.
