ROKUJURO Posted Wednesday at 07:05 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 07:05 PM The motif of the right one could be BENKEI and YOSHITSUNE. 1 Quote
Jake6500 Posted Wednesday at 07:36 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 07:36 PM (edited) I agree with Piers and Jean both, the style reminds me of Hikone Soten and the motif on the right could be Benkei and Yoshitsune which you might infer from the naginata held by the warrior on the fuchi (which Benkei is frequently depicted with). As for the motif of the piece on the left, I'm not sure, but maybe some sort of court scene is being depicted given the formal headwear and the seiza position on the fuchi? Alternatively, this could be a depiction of Noh theatre actors re-enacting a court scene as well? Edited Wednesday at 07:36 PM by Jake6500 1 1 Quote
