She is considered to be the Goddess of mirth and is frequently seen in Japanese art. Her full cheeks and merry eyes are an unforgettable sight and a delight to behold. Some Japanese scholars theorize that long ago, when the first Okame images were created, they may have represented an idealized form of feminine beauty.It was purchased in Kyoto in the fall of 1977 which is noted on the back along with the artist's signature and name of mask, Okame. Never hung for display.
