Summary
Anonymous (Japanese). 'Mask,' 19th century. sawdust with dark brown lacquer (?) finish. Walters Art Museum (25.11): Acquired by William T. or Henry Walters.
Traditional Japanese masks are mostly decorative and are available for sale at shrine festivals and events. Others are worn during certain Shinto dances or by actors performing a role on the stage. Most of these masks are archetypes borrowed from myth, ancient dances or Noh theater, and they have become some of the most popular Japanese masks that you’ll see today.
