[Synopsis] A traveling yamabushi arrives at Mount Katsuragi in Yamato and it begins to snow. A local woman appears and entertains the yamabushi by a bonfire. The woman asks him to perform a prayer. She reveals that she is bound by kudzu vines and suffering, then disappears, revealing herself to be the deity of Katsuragi. That night, as the yamabushi performs the prayer, the deity of Katsuragi appears, expresses her joy at being freed from suffering, dances the Yamato dance, and disappears into a rock cave. ◾️ As this is related to Noh, it is listed under the Noh mask category. - I also have other Noh masks and props for sale.
