A beauty among (papier mache) beasts is this Chinese girl at a mask-making shop at North Point, Hong Kong. The shop produces about 100 hand-made masks a day and they are used in Chinese opera as well as for a variety of decorative purposes. In opera, masks of a certain colour are used to denote the character of the wearer green for wickedness, red for righteousness and blue for pride.
