Description
YOSHIDA Saburo describes the scene of Noh play “Kakitsubata”. This catches the mysterious beauty of the spirit who is wearing the crown and the clothes, and it represents the contrast with the tension of the clothes and the gentle expression of women’s Noh mask. The crown is the style of Kanze-ryu because YOSHIDA Saburo is living in Tokyo. But the work, which is displaying in front of Kanazawa station, puts the crown of the style of Houshou-ryu due to the request of the citizen. Because Kanazawa city is the origin of Kaga Hosho-ryu.
