Explaining the map of Esfuerzo and the key, numbering all the homes and identifying their inhabitants. This map helps our team to remember who lives where.
I kind of wonder how many Noh performers do that as their primary/sole occupation? Wonder too how they make a living doing it. I mean, sure, you charge money for tickets (and probably charge money for demonstrations like these too), but...
This fellow, if I remember right, is in line to become the head of the Ôe school (a branch of the Kanze school), so I guess I wouldn't be surprised if he and his master and a very small number of other people run the Nôgakudô as their primary/sole activity. And, I am sure they have plenty of students who pay for lessons, just as a hobby, or maybe for some as a more serious pursuit. But, do they also have professional members of their "troupe", so to speak? How many?
Anyway, I'm just envious they get to wear traditional clothing (and all kinds of different costumes) and to just be immersed in traditional culture everyday, as their normal everyday profession.

Martin explained that they had two jigsaws from JC Vickery, a very high class jeweller, founded in 1890 by John Collard Vickery & Arthur Hobbs. It traded at 178, 181,1 83 Regent St, London and held over ten 'by appointment' warrants from European Royal personages, for jewellery & leather goods (including Edward VII & Queen Alexandria). The jigsaws appear to be made by Tuck cutters and date from 1902-1910. The firm ran into difficulties in 1930, when John Vickery died, and was taken over by James Walker Ltd. The brand was relaunched in 2016!
Not only do the jigsaws feature many recognisable Tuck early whimsies, but there is a tiny Tuck artist logo discretely placed in the lower left corner. Martin's jigsaws are numbered 5 & 7, but Martin doesn't know the size of the New Fine Art Picture Puzzle Series. Their second jigsaw is JC Vickery 200pc Run of the Season. I know of two others - a 764pc of a Girl Sitting By a Stream (28x18in) shown on Pg 9 of Oct 2009 Issue 94 of the BCD Magazine by Nicki B, and a late Coaching scene including a bicycle (belonging to David P).
JC Vickery New Fine Art Picture Puzzle 600pc The King's Daughter by Herbert Gustave Schmalz. Push-fit, c70fig, black & white print, 13.5x28.5in.
The King's Daughter holds a lily and walks ahead of a band of maidens holding musical instruments (pipes, cymbals, drums, zithers? and trumpets). She looks as if she is going to be a offering to a cult or alliance. The scene resembles a work by Alma Tadema, and even Burne-Jones's Golden Stair.
Schmalz was born in England in 1856 to the German Consul and his English wife Margaret nee Carmichael. He studied art at the South Kensington Art School and Royal Academy. He was a history painter inspired by the Pre-Raphaelites. After the first world war in 1918 he took his mother's maiden name.
(Martin presented another jigsaw of a Schmalz painting in June 2023, for the Wild Card theme - Imogen Draws Her Sword.)
