Netsuke of Kyōgen Mask; Kitsune
The image shows a wooden carving of a Kyōgen mask depicting a fox. The mask shows a snarling face with the mouth open, revealing sharp teeth. The face is rendered in dark brown wood with visible grain and texture. Two small triangular ears protrude from the top of the head. The eyes are golden-brown with detailed eyelashes. The nose is short and rounded. The furrowed brow gives the fox an angry expression. The background is plain white with a subtle shadow beneath the mask.
