Tour Scotland Video Masks Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum Glasgow

Tour Scotland video of Masks in Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum on ancestry visit to Glasgow, Scotland. The use of masks in rituals or ceremonies is a very ancient human practice across the world, although masks can also be worn for protection, in hunting, in sports, in feasts, or in wars, or simply used as ornamentation. Some ceremonial or decorative masks were not designed to be worn. Although the religious use of masks has waned, masks are used sometimes in drama therapy or psychotherapy.
