Description
|
|
|
|
The sumptuous robes and exquisitely carved masks of traditional Noh theater are presented in this catalog from a 2002 exhibit at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, along with the costumes of Kyogen, the comical short pieces presented as interludes between Noh plays. Seen in color photographs, each costume represents the age, gender, and social status of the character in its rich and unique design, and all reveal magnificent techniques of weaving and dyeing. The book also features paintings, songbooks, and musical instruments associated with Noh and Kyogen.
