Beijing Bound

Beijing Opera Masks

Beijing opera (京剧 jīngjù) is a form of traditional Chinese theatre that combines music, vocal performance, mime, dance and acrobatics. It arose in the late 18th century.
Masks are used by performers when they dance.
Facial make-up is a special art form in Chinese operas which distinctly show the different roles, dispositions and moral qualities.
The main color in a facial makeup symbolizes the disposition of the character:
• Red indicates devotion, courage and uprightness.
• Yellow signifies fierceness and ambition.
• Blue represents fierceness and astuteness.
• White suggests suspiciousness and craftiness.
• Black symbolizes roughness and fierceness.
• Purple stands for sophistication and cool-headedness.
• Gold and silver colors are usually used for gods and spirits.
