Thank you John & Ron for the info., just what I wanted.
In addition I have another question for the kabuki experts out there; the print that prompted my previous inquiry is a chuban diptych of a kabuki scene which shows two actors where one character appears to be humbly(surely not a real word) offering up a sandal on a platter to the other. I wonder if anyone recognises the play and can explain the relevance of the shoe?
Thanks in advance,
Nick
