Young man. A noh mask *noumen \Κ, representing a young commoner with some weakness of character. Two types exist: one along the lines of *kantan otoko ηΆηΐj (Kongou ΰ school style), the other closer to *chuujou « and *imawaka ‘α (Kanze Ο’ school style). There is a strength in the flowing eyebrows, the wide-set brow, and the bared lower teeth. The black rim along the top is thin, and the lack of beard distinguishes this mask from most other young man masks. Used for the ghost of Ono no Yorikaze ¬μ, who has drowned himself from remorse in OMINAMESHI YΤ and for the father soothsayer in UTAURA Μθ. A mask with inscription saying it is the model mask of the Houshou σΆ school made by the 15c carver Tokuwaka Ώα (see *jissaku \μ) is housed in the Tokyo National Museum. Wakaiotoko is also used as a descriptive term for early young men's masks made before the name-types were set, such as the 15c mask at Hakusan Jinja R_Π in Gifu prefecture. | ||||||
