Description
-
"Dyed ground" (jizomari 地染), "main stencil" (omogata 主型).
The tie-dye (shibori 絞り) pattern kanoko 鹿の子 similizes the white spots of deer calf (ka 鹿 = deer; ko 子 = kid).
Manjugiku 万寿菊: A motif in the manner of Ogata Kōrin 尾形光琳 (1658 - 1716). Since the shape of the chrysanthemum (kiku 菊) is reminiscent of a filled dumpling (manjū 饅頭), it is called “manjugiku”. However, this motif is written with the characters for “long life (manju 万寿) “.
