Stencil with Theme from Matsukaze 19th century Japan The vignette at the lower right of this stencil (katagami) evokes the Noh play Matsukaze (literally, "wind in the pines"). Matsukaze, a lovelorn woman of humble status, pined for the return of her lover, the nobleman Yukihira, formerly an exile to the shores of Suma Bay, where she and her sister lived. In the second half of the play the spirit of Matsukaze dons a courtly robe and hat that Yukihira had left behind. Insisting that the pine tree on the shore is Yukihira, she performs a heartbreaking dance of madness and attachment to her earthly passions. The robe is seen here hanging from a pine tree, and the hat is on the ground nearby.. Stencil with Theme from Matsukaze. Japan. 19th century. Paper, silk. Stencils

Panel of tiles (8) ca. 1660 French, Rouen Faience, or tin-glazed and enameled earthenware, first emerged in France during the sixteenth century, reaching widespread usage among elite patrons during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, prior to the establishment of soft-paste porcelain factories. Although characterized as more provincial in style than porcelain, French faience was used at the court of Louis XIV as part of elaborate meals and displays, with large-scale vessels incorporated into the Baroque garden designs of Versailles. Earlier examples of French faience attest to the strong influence of maiolica artists from Italy. Later works demonstrate the ways in which cities such as Nevers, Rouen, Lyon, Moustiers, and Marseille developed innovative vessel shapes and decorative motifs prized among collectors throughout Europe. While faience can be created from a wide mixture of clays, it is foremost distinguished by the milky opaque white color achieved by the addition of
