This mask can be compared with the enormous 'Hell Mouth' created for Vicino Orsini between 1550 and 1584 in the Parco dei Mostri, Bomarzo. Further comparisons can also be drawn with The Palazzo Zuccari in Rome built in the late 16th century for the painters Frederico and Taddeo Zucarri which also expresses this influence in the enormous face with furrowed brows whose wide open mouth surrounds the door.
