Moley Posted December 7, 2012 Report Posted December 7, 2012 I just read post in the "wanted" section about a crow and moon Tsuba. It brought back memories of a Tsuba I saw years and years ago of a New moon and cloud theme.(Alas, I have no photo of this beautiful object) At the time I thought it the most beautiful Tsuba I ever saw. Thinking back later on I realised that part of the cloud was "BEHIND" the moon !!! Now, clouds are nearer the earth than the moon, so there is no way they can drift behind the satellite, so why would the artisan have crafted the most beautiful Tsuba to show the cloud Partially behind the moon? Was there a reason for this? Has anyone else ever seen this on a Tsuba ? Very interested. Thanks in anticipation Gwyn Quote
christianmalterre Posted December 7, 2012 Report Posted December 7, 2012 Dear Gwyn, you do ask an good question here... Maybe you do have an picture of this spoken object? It would faciliate an very lot indeed... Sun,Moon,Cloud,Crow and Star-constellation indeed do have specific meaning;the point but interesting is to see the each individually occuring both parts together;such to arrange them propperly into their´s signigicance...
