In Japan, the kimono was the universal garment, worn by men and women of all ages. While children often wore hand-me-downs from their elders, for special occasions the preference was for garments with auspicious motifs, such as cranes and dragons\u2014symbols of long life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seven of the 20 works in this exhibition are&nbsp;<em>miyamairi&nbsp;<\/em>kimono, spectacular works with hand-painted designs made for a toddler\u2019s first visit to a Shinto shrine. Others show a dazzling variety of patterns and dyeing techniques, including&nbsp;<em>kasuri&nbsp;<\/em>(where the threads are tie-dyed before being strung on the loom) and&nbsp;<em>tsutsugaki&nbsp;<\/em>(a resist technique where designs are drawn on the cloth with rice paste). Of special interest are the&nbsp;<em>omoshirogara,&nbsp;<\/em>the \u201cnovelty designs\u201d that came into vogue in the 1910s through 1930s. Often playful in nature, these feature modern imagery such as airplanes and teddy bears. Spanning from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century, the kimono and banners in the Paly collection evoke the magic of childhood in traditional Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Curated by Maribeth Graybill, Ph.D., The Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Curator of Asian Art.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns resource-card-image hover-cards is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns hover-card is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-disable-lightbox\" data-gallery-name=\"\" data-modal-description=\"\" data-modal-title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" data-full-size=\"https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure-1.jpg\" style=\"object-position:50% 50%;\" src=\"https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure-1.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of a detail of an indigo-colored children's kimono\" class=\"wp-image-8782\" srcset=\"https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure-1-700x393.jpg 700w, https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure-1-900x506.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exhibition brochure<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button hover-card__link is-style-download\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/portlandartmuseum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/2016-Cranes-Dragons-and-TeddyBears-Brochure.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" aria-describedby=\"opens-in-new-window\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese Children\u2019s Kimono from the Collection of Marita and David Paly Overview Throughout history, in most of the world, children\u2019s clothing was simply a smaller version of what was worn [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":8778,"template":"","meta":{"_tec_requires_first_save":false,"pam_header_media":false,"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","transcript_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"America\/Vancouver","_EventStartDate":"2016-10-22 08:00:00","_EventEndDate":"2017-03-13 17:00:00","_EventStartDateUTC":"2016-10-22 15:00:00","_EventEndDateUTC":"2017-03-14 00:00:00","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"$","_EventCurrencyCode":"USD","_EventCurrencyPosition":"prefix","_EventDateTimeSeparator":" @ ","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":" -
