Artistic & Historical Background:          Listen
Chinese Peking Opera, also known as Beijing Opera, is a traditional Chinese theatrical art form that has been passed down for over 200 years.

It combines singing, dancing, acting, and acrobatics to tell stories from Chinese history and mythology.

The costumes and headpieces of Peking Opera are an integral part of the performance, reflecting the characters' personalities and social status.

The Lord Wu Sangui costume is one of the most famous and iconic pieces in Peking Opera.

It consists of a red robe with gold embroidery, a black hat with a golden crown, and a long white beard.

The costume represents the character of Lord Wu Sangui, who was a powerful and corrupt official during the Song Dynasty.

The costume is designed to make the actor look majestic and dignified on stage.

The Elderly Male Garment is another important piece of Peking Opera attire.

It is a long, flowing robe made of silk or cotton, often adorned with intricate patterns and designs.

The garment is worn by male actors who play elderly characters in the opera.

It is designed to convey a sense of wisdom and dignity, as well as to add depth and complexity to the character's personality.

In addition to these two main pieces, there are many other costumes and headpieces used in Peking Opera, each with its own unique style and significance.

For example, the General Armor is worn by male characters who play military leaders or generals, while the Clothing is worn by male characters who play commoners or peasants.

Peking Opera costumes and headpieces are not only beautiful and intricate, but they also have deep cultural significance.

They reflect the values and beliefs of Chinese society at different times and places, as well as the artistic achievements of Chinese craftsmen throughout history.

By wearing these costumes and headpieces, actors can fully embody their characters and bring them to life on stage.
