Kogyo Tsukioka’s Scene from the Noh Theater Play Aoinoue (September 1922) captures a moment from the Noh drama, celebrated for its exploration of profound human emotions within supernatural themes. This artwork illustrates Tsukioka’s skill in woodblock printing, with fine detail that brings depth to the elaborate costumes and conveys the solemn beauty of the performance. Aoinoue, inspired by the classic Tale of Genji, explores themes of jealousy and unrequited love through powerful, stylised expression in Japanese theater.
