Holidays colors yes but with a twist :D

Beautiful color matching for this antique outfit, pairing a kimono with bamboo stalks over a ground of hanakatsumi (geometrical leaves and flowers pattern), with a fantastic black-based obi with a snarling hannya noh mask.

For #FrockFriday, this was definitely one of the highlights of the #KimonoStyle exhibition at The Met:

Man's Under Kimono (Nagajuban) with Spider and Spiderweb Taisho (1912-26) or Showa (1926-89) period, 1920s-30s Crepe silk (chirimen) with freehand paste-resist dyeing (yüzen) The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York

"Worn under an outer garment or at home, the nagajuban frequently bore eye-catching designs that would be seen only by family and friends. The large spider perched on the right shoulder of the crepe silk robe, whose back is covered with a web against gray clouds, exemplifies such a decoration. The pattern could be a reference to Tsuchigumo [Yōkai], a monstrous, shape-shifting spider featured in Japanese myths and legends as well as in Noh and Kabuki plays. The dramatic, supernatural subject was also featured in ukiyo-e prints, which might have inspired this nagajuban's composition."

Shakkyo - Noh

Paul Binnie - 1997

This is the only print of Noh in this group of Kabuki woodblocks and is done in a "Sosaku-hanga" or creative print style identified by "drawing" straight onto the block with a chisel.

"Shakkyo" means a stone bridge, and refers to the bridge to heaven guarded by Shishi, or mythological, lions.

The mask, shishiguchi, is gilded while the wig is red and made of yaks' hair.

Fantastic kagura suzu (instrument used in kagura dance) and noh fan obi, with beautiful embroidery work and gold thread couching.

The bell and fan are probably a nod to the auspicious noh dance Sanbasô praying for bountiful harvests. Here are powerful modern performances:

“IWAKICHI

I'm not a phantom any more. While I was alive I was a phantom. Now all that remains is what I used to dream about. Nobody can disappoint me any more.

HANAKO

From what I can see, however, you still aren't precisely the incarnation of love. I don't mean to criticize your growth of beard or your janitor's uniform or your sweaty undershirt— There's something lacking, something your love needs before it can assume a form. There's insufficient proof that your love in this world was real, if that was the only reason why you died.

IWAKICHI

Do you want proof from a ghost? (He empties his pockets.) Ghosts don't own anything. I've lost every possession which might have served as proof.” - Yukio Mishima, ‘The Damask Drum’ (1957)

New exhibit at the Museum of Asian Art features artwork from Edo period Japan depicting scenes of spirits and entities from kabuki and noh theater. It’s extremely rad and very much my thing.
