Japanese No Masks: With 300 Illustrations of Authentic Historical Examples

Accompanying the sumptuous costumes worn during performances are elaborately carved No and Kyogen wooden masks --major works of art in their own right. This book, by Fredrich Perzynski & Stanley Appelbaum, presents 120 full pages of illustrations and information relating to these magnificent theatrical devices.
