日本にわずか数名！武士が大切にした甲冑を守る現代の職人・甲冑師の紹介動画 こちらは「ANA Global Channel」が公開した甲冑師・三浦公法さんへのインタビュー動画「Japanese armor maker／Interview - IS JAPAN COOL? CRAFTSMANSHIP（甲冑師）」です。 現代に受け継がれる芸術品としての甲冑の歴史 かつて武士が合戦で身につけた甲冑。現代では工芸品としての性格が高く、日本刀と並んで国内外のコレクターから人気を集めています。 武士が作り上げてきた甲冑という伝統文化と歴史を受け継ぐのは、今では数名の甲冑師のみとなりました。 甲冑師の仕事とは 現代の甲冑師は歴史的な鎧や兜を修理・製作したり、鎧細工を施したりすることが主な仕事となっています。 そんな匠の技を継承する甲冑師のひとり、三浦公法さんは無形文化財としても認定された職人です。 国宝の復元や、江戸時代に徳川家康から英国ジェームズ一世に贈られた甲冑の修理復元を行うなど、歴史的価値のある作品を手掛けてきました。 新作の甲冑を作る場合、平安時代や鎌倉時代に作られた甲冑をもとに製作します。 すべて手作業なので、納品までに非常に時間がかかり、早くても3年、長くて5年の年月が必要だといわれています。 しかも甲冑に設計図はありません。 鎧細工に使う素材は自ら探し、加工を行うため、匠の技が試させられるのです。 甲冑師は歴史上、戦国時代には「具足師（ぐそくし）」と呼ばれていました。 平安時代には、武士の成立を背景として大鎧が主たる甲冑でありましたが、戦国時代になると、鉄砲の登場を背景に機動性に優れた甲冑である「当世具足（とうせいぐそく）」が誕生しました。 一方で、戦国武将は甲冑に個性あふれるデザインを施し、その奇抜さや迫力を戦場で競い合ったのです。 甲冑師と後継者問題 伝統工芸品の世界で問題になるのが後継者問題。 職人の世界といえば所作の指導や厳しい修行があるため長続きしない人も少なくありません。 しかし中には、日本文化に興味をもって海外から弟子入りする人も増えています。 甲冑師・三浦さんの弟子アンドリューさんもアメリカからやってきました。 端午の節句・五月人形に受け継がれた甲冑の伝統文化 美術品として扱われる甲冑。 現代の私たちが最も身近に見られるのが端午の節句の五月人形です。 その歴史は武士社会の成立にさかのぼります。 端午の節句自体は奈良時代からあったようですが、甲冑を飾る習慣は武士の治世となった江戸時代に端を発します。 武士にとって端午の節句は重要な行事。 この季節に盛りを迎える菖蒲が「尚武（部を重んじる意味）」に繋がることから、邪気を祓い健康を保つと考えられてきました。 このことから男子の健康、ひいては一族の繁栄を願い、武家の家では端午の節句に神社に甲冑を奉納していたのです。 甲冑は武士にとって戦いから身を守る防具という意味だけではなく、病などの災いからも守ってくれるものだったからなのですね。 さて、この五月人形の製作も甲冑師の仕事です。 職人の作風もさまざまですが、五月人形で有名な甲冑師としては、一久、雄山、辰広、龍玉がいます。 有名な流派としては明珍派、春田派があります。 端午の節句には、どんな人形が飾られているか目を向けてみるのもいいですね。 甲冑師の紹介まとめ 戦国時代が好きな人であれば実際に触れたくなるのが甲冑です。 都内には甲冑試着体験を行っているところもあります。 興味のある人は甲冑を身に付けて、当時の武士になりきってみてはいかがでしょうか。 芸術品としての甲冑の価値は高く人気を誇ります。 動画を通じて、甲冑の歴史の奥深さを味わってみてくださいね！

伝統工芸品「伊勢形紙」紹介動画について こちらの動画は「伝統工芸 青山スクエア」が公開した「手技TEWAZA「伊勢形紙」Ise-katagami Paper Stencil／伝統工芸 青山スクエア Japan traditional crafts Aoyama Square」です。 伊勢形紙（いせかたがみ）は、型染めに用いられる型紙です。 古くから伊勢（三重県鈴鹿市）で作られ、現在でも流通している90％以上の伊勢形紙はこの地域で生産されています。 伊勢形紙は1955年に、文化財保護法に基づき工芸技術としての重要無形文化財に指定され、6名の職人が重要無形文化財保持者（人間国宝）として認定されました。 1983年には通産省の伝統的工芸品の指定も受けています。 日本の伝統工芸品である伊勢形紙とは 伊勢形紙は、柿渋で張り合わせて補強した美濃和紙を台紙にし、文様や図柄を彫刻刀で丹念に彫り抜いたものです。 職人が彫刻刀による手彫りで図柄を彫り抜いて作りあげる独特の風合いが魅力です。 千有余年の歴史を誇る伊勢形紙は、古くから友禅や小紋、浴衣など着物の文様の型染めに用いられてきました。 図柄の芸術性が再評価され、現在は着物の染色のみならず生活に密着した日用品などにも使用されるようになっています。 例えば襖・障子などの室内装飾やLED照明にも応用されるなど伊勢形紙の新しい取り組みに注目が集まっています。 さらに団扇、扇子、しおりなどの和小物は連日多くの外国人観光客がお土産品として買い求めています。 日本の伝統工芸品である伊勢形紙の制作工程 繊細で美しい文様で世界的に高く評価されている伊勢形紙ですが、型紙を作るには高度な技法と根気が必要です。 動画でご覧になれる制作工程を簡単に説明すると、まず最初は型地紙づくりです。 美濃和紙を柿渋でベニヤ状に張り合わせ、天日乾燥と室枯らし（燻烟）を繰り返します。 ここまで延べ40日ほどかけて作られます。 出来上がった紙を選別後、2、3カ月～1年間、寸法を安定させるために寝かせます。 出来上がった伊勢形紙は染型紙として用いられ、細かい刃先の彫刻刀で精巧微細な図柄を彫っていきます。 色や素材の使い方しだいで、職人の技法とデザインセンスが光る作品が生まれるのです。 日本の伝統工芸品である伊勢形紙紹介まとめ 残念なことに着物の需要の減少によって伊勢形紙業者は縮小傾向にあり、技術保存会などが用意された型紙に彫っていく1日体験コースや、本格的な伊勢形紙の技術が学べる弟子入りコースなど優れた技術を後世に伝えようと様々な工夫をしています。 その反面、手仕事から生まれる美しい模様の伊勢形紙は日本文化の象徴、また伝統工芸品として外国人旅行客に好まれています。 伊勢形紙はこれからも美術伝統工芸品として高く評価され、人々を魅了し続けることでしょう。

This video, titled "Flavors of Kaga and Noto (Fermented Food): Kabura Sushi, Konka Iwashi - nippon.com" (加賀・能登の美味「発酵食」：かぶら寿し・こんかいわし | nippon.com), was released by "nippon.com." Fermented foods made from fish and shellfish have been made in Japan's Hokuriku region since ancient times. An environment where it is cold enough to maintain low temperatures is ideal for food fermentation. Kabura sushi, a Kanazawa specialty, is said to have originated as a preserved food made from fermented vegetables and fish. Nowadays, yellowtail fillets caught on the Sea of Japan are placed in between salted turnips. The turnip is then enclosed in a vat and the space between the two is filled with koji, and the koji bacteria ferments the turnip to produce a delicious taste. The crunchiness of the turnip and the flavor of the yellowtail are combined with the aroma of koji to create a complex taste. On the other hand, sardine soaked in bran is called "konka iwashi" and is eaten lightly grilled with bran on top. This is also eaten with sardines and bran neatly spread in a tub and fermented.
