Six colorful masks recount the story of Guatemala's Dance of the Conquest. Adapted from Spanish history, it tells how the Spaniards expelled the Moors from their homeland. The dance culminates with the Moors' conversion to Christianity, and all dance together. By Jose Arriola, the set includes a Moor with a blue turban, a floral skull that represents death, and a red devil. Animals of the jungle include a toucan with a green beak, a blue macaw and a yellow tiger with pointy red ears.
