Actor in the No Play Tomonaga

Tsukioka Kôgyo (mentioned on object), 1926

In No, dance is a remarkably stylized, slowly executed performance. While dancing the feet glide over the floor, never leaving the ground. In this print the stylization and stillness of a person calmly sliding over the smoothly polished wooden floor is tangible.
