International influence of Noh The encounter of Noh and Yeats, and "At the Hawk's Well" had a big influence to 20th century's art. Many modernism artists were involved in production of "At the Hawk's Well" such as Ezra Pound, Edmund Dulac, Michio Ito…etc who pulled 20th century's art after that. Another famous Irish author, Samuel Beckett's masterpiece "En attendant Godot" is sometimes compared with "At the Hawk's Well" or Noh itself. T.S, Eliot, the representative poet of Modernism, praised Yeats as a great contemporary artist upon watching “At the Hawk’s Well“. Some representative great directors of 20th century, such as Peter Brook and Robert Wilson, are also under the influence of Japanese Noh. Like above, Japanese Noh gave a big influence on Western theatre art, just like Ukiyoe did to the artists of Impressionism, such as Gogh and Monet.
