More about this artwork

This painting by Kogyo Tsukioka illustrates a dynamic scene from the traditional Japanese Noh play, "Ikkaku Sennin." In this vivid and expressive artwork, you can see distinct characters engaging in what appears to be a dramatic moment of confrontation or interaction.On the left side of the painting, there is a figure adorned in a rustic, textured costume with a frayed appearance, possibly representing a hermit or a mystical character. This figure wields a long spear, extending it towards the characters on the opposite side. The wild, exaggerated hair and the flowing lines of the garment add a sense of movement and intensity.To the right, two figures dressed in elaborate and colorful traditional Noh theatre costumes face the solitary figure. Their costumes are rich with patterns and hues, predominantly red and blue, and their faces are concealed by masks, which is characteristic of Noh performances, where masks often denote the roles, emotions, or statuses of the characters.
