How does the style of Chojiro's Teabowl, Called Yugure ("Twilight") correspond to the conventions of Japanese tea ceremonies and the Japanese admiration for the natural and asymmetrical?
What will be an ideal response?
The ideal Answer should include:
1. During the Momoyama period, there was interest in the quiet, the restrained, and the natural.
2. Sen no Rikyu conceived of chanoyu as an intimate gathering in which a few people entered a small, rustic room, drank tea carefully prepared in front of them by their host, and quietly discussed the tea utensils or a Zen scroll hanging on the wall.
3. A teabowl, like Yugure, would be judged by how well it fitted into the hands and how subtly its shape and texture appealed to the eye.
4. The texture and red color of Yugure evokes a gentle landscape illuminated by the setting sun, and irregular shape and crackled texture exemplified the aesthetics of tea at the beginning of its development.
