Naga500 La Corbeille de Nefles. Chinois 1950 Oban

‘A Basket of Kumquats,’ returns to a portrait of a Chinese opera actor who specialized in female roles, much as the onnagata still does in Japan. The tradition is just now being revived in China. The pink fan refers to the sexual preference of the actor, perhaps. The patterns of the ceramic tiles at the front of the stage, and the mountainous backdrop and lantern of the stage set the scene. The actor’s shaved head and remarkable beauty are unforgettable.
