Re: menpo
A fine menpo as we can expect from Yoshiomi.
The label confirms :’Yoshiomi menpo’ and 江戸時代 edo period.

Re: menpo
hello Luc, thank you for your time. I couldn't find a signature on the metal of the menpo, but there is this label and the quality is there. I will post the photo of the armor on which is the menpo. cordial greetings, Michel

Re: menpo
Hello, thank you, it dates from the edo period? that's it? because that's what it seemed to me ... my difficulty is that I have to use the machine translation which may not necessarily be very accurate ..., I posted a photo of the armor ...

Re: menpo
Hi and welcome Michel!
Yup, we roughly can put his creative period in the mid 19th century.
He was employed as an armorer by the Mito-Tokugawa in 1844. Beforehand, in 1834, he became “yagura-dōjin” (more or less a policeman in service of the bakufu).
Nice mask!

Re: menpo
It seems to be a well made ryubu-menpô. Very likely late Myôchin school.....so why not?!
