Magojiro: Shown by the left photograph, the mask of "Magojiro" was originally
made by Magojiro, Kongo-Tayu, in the transition period in the first half
of 16 century. In the same period, "Hannya" and "Mampi"
were also made originally. It is said that Magojiro made the mask with
remembering his dead wife. The predecessor in the Kongo family line, Iwao Kongo, said as follows: It is the rule of the Kongo family that every pregnant wife of the Kongo family must always appreciate the mask of Magojiro with the wish of having a beautiful baby like the beautiful, peaceful and noble mask of Magojiro. Compared with "Ko-Omote" or "Waka-Onna", the mask of Magojiro has the features of long face, firm cheeks, and higher position of eyes. The impression of the whole face is lonely and noble. The mask of left photograph is best of several masks of Magojiro made by Shokei, which has the features of loneliness and nobleness. While having some problems, he loves the Magojiro extremely. |
