Item Description (English): This is a set of two original woodblock prints by renowned Meiji-era artist Tsukioka Kōgyo (月岡耕漁), titled "Dōjōji" (道成寺) and "Sumiyoshi Mōde" (住吉詣). These works are part of Kōgyo’s celebrated Nōgaku Zue (能楽図絵) series, which depicted scenes from traditional Noh theater with refined detail and atmospheric depth. "Dōjōji": This print illustrates the dramatic Noh play about a woman who, consumed by jealousy and betrayal, transforms into a serpent and hides inside a temple bell at Dōjōji. The story unfolds with intense ritual and supernatural imagery, culminating in a climactic moment of spiritual purification and release. "Sumiyoshi Mōde": Depicts a scene from the Noh play inspired by The Tale of Genji, where Prince Genji visits Sumiyoshi Shrine in celebration after regaining political power. Amid a grand procession and festive rituals, he reunites with Lady Akashi, a past lover, who hesitates to meet him but ultimately dances for him in an emotional encounter. Both pieces reflect Tsukioka Kōgyo's mastery in blending theatrical composition with the aesthetics of classical Japanese woodblock printing. The prints are highly regarded among collectors of Japanese theater and Meiji-period art. Size: Each approx. 36 cm × 24 cm Artist Profile: Tsukioka Kōgyo (1869–1927) was a prominent Japanese painter and woodblock print artist, best known for his depictions of Noh theater.
