A beautifully illustrated exhibition catalog exploring the extraordinary artistry of traditional Japanese Noh theater costumes. Published in conjunction with the exhibition Sculpture in Silk: Costumes from Japan's Noh Theater, this large-format volume features stunning full-color photographs of rare silk garments, intricate embroidery, woven patterns, and historic Noh masks, accompanied by scholarly essays on costume design, cultural significance, and the preservation of Japan's classical performing arts.

Please note that this copy is in fair condition, with some water damage along the lower margins of several pages and the interior covers. The damage does not obscure the photographs or text, and the book remains an attractive and useful reference volume.
