Japanese Zoh-Onna Noh Mask. Attributed to Takada Fuki (高田冨季, 1935–2008)

About the Item

Zō-onna (増女) This mask depicts a woman with a noble and calm expression. In Noh theater, it is used for roles of young women. The mask conveys elegance and softness, making it suitable for roles related to female characters. There is a theory that this mask was created during the Muromachi period, but the details of its origin remain unclear. The mask symbolizes feminine beauty and gentleness, which are conveyed through its delicate features and serene expression. ---- This collection of masks, although unsigned, is attributed to the renowned Noh mask maker Takada Fuki (高田冨季, 1935–2008). Known for his exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail, Takada Fuki was a prominent figure in the world of Noh mask making, capturing the spirit and emotion of each character through his finely crafted works. Fuki trained under the esteemed master Hori Yasemon (堀安右衛門, 1899–1976), a celebrated artist in Noh mask-making, recognized for his meticulous technique and profound understanding of traditional Japanese theater. Through Yasemon’s teachings, Fuki mastered the intricate art of Noh mask making, combining the traditional style with his personal artistic touch. Fuki’s masks are highly regarded for their expressiveness and ability to convey deep emotional resonance on stage, continuing to be an integral part of Noh performances today. His legacy, shaped by the tutelage of Hori Yasemon, remains influential in the craft of Noh mask making.
