Μάσκα Noh - Ξύλο - Okina Μάσκα Γέροντα (χωρίς τιμή ασφαλείας)

Okina Mask 翁面 (Old Man) / Japanese Traditional Noh Wooden folk craft mask by 龍仙 Ryusen - 1974 (Showa49)

Okina masks are used by the main character 'Okina', a god in the form of an old man, in the Noh play 'Okina' which is performed mainly on New Year's Day and other festive occasions.

Artist: 龍仙 Ryusen

The 1974 carving by Ryūsen presents an Okina mask with a warmly smiling face, deepened cheek lines, and a flowing beard that together evoke the dignified yet gentle presence of the deity‑like old man who presides over the auspicious Noh play Okina; the softly rounded planes, rhythmic chisel marks, and lightly animated expression give the mask a celebratory air suited to New Year and other festive performances, while Ryūsen’s steady hand lends the piece a calm, time‑honored authority.
