| Red WEDDING KIMONO Autumnal Leaves & Wagons |
This energetic kimono's brilliant red background is barely visible through the remarkable woven design that reflect the youthful exuberance of the wedding party for which it was designed.
Gorgeous gold, blue, and green pine boughs as well as gold silver, and red maple leaves grow between aristocratic carriages. Some of these carriages are further adorned with cranes, symbols of longevity that in this context represent a young bride's hope for the future.
The ragged-edged gold squares that accompany these wagons may seem harsh. In fact, they are related to the Japanese tradition of finding beauty in the old and imperfect. This makes it an especially interesting display piece for a collector. |
