| Additional Information |
Image was scanned from color slide. Note: Number in caption refers to designation in book: Noh, the Classical Theatre of Japan by Donald Keene. Note: "Noh (Nō)...is a major form of classical Japanese musical drama that has been performed since the 14th century...Noh performance is extremely codified, and regulated by the iemoto system, with an emphasis on tradition rather than innovation..."--Wikipedia. Note: "Tobide means protuberance, referring in the case of this mask to the eyeballs. The expression, evocative of the strength and severity of a being invested with divine powers, makes it suitable for the thunder god in Kamo."--Noh, the Classical Theatre of Japan by Donald Keene, page 172. |
