並列タイトル等Representation of Women in Horyu-ji-goju-no-to-tohon-sozo (Clay Statues of Horyu-ji's Five Story Pagoda) : A Study on Clothing
一般注記type:Other
Enshrined are many clay statues of people on the lowest level of Horyu-ji-goju-no-to (Horyu-ji's five-story pagoda). They are estimated to be moulded in 711 (Wado 4), and consequently are materials of note to know the clothing in those days. This paper examines the representations of women in a dress with unique sleeves among them as its primary focus. This dress was peculiar to dancers and musicians during the Han dynasty in China, and during the Tang dynasty it was depicted as attire of tenbu (devas), tennin (celestials) and for attending a memorial service. In Japan, it was called katsumae and drawn also as attire of tenbu after representations of women in Chinese Buddhist paintings. This paper demonstrates that this garment was not in actual use in that it was involved in the religious scenes only. It also argues that part of the clay statues of women in katsumae are of tenbu.
