EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating 19th-century woodblock print, titled "Shanao [Yoshitsune] Learns Martial Arts in Sojogatani" transports us to the enchanting world of ancient Japan. Created by Utagawa Kunisada during the Edo period, this masterpiece showcases his exceptional skill in ukiyo-e, a traditional Japanese artistic school. The scene depicted is filled with rich details that immerse us in the narrative. Shanao Yoshitsune, a legendary figure from Japanese mythology, can be seen diligently honing his martial arts skills under the moonlit sky. Dressed in traditional clothing and barefooted on geta sandals, he exudes an aura of determination and discipline. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout the composition. From the intricate bridge spanning over a serene river to bundles carried by passersby, every element contributes to creating a sense of time and place. The full moon shining above adds an ethereal touch while mythical creatures subtly hint at folklore intertwined with reality. As we gaze upon this polychrome print housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), we are transported back centuries ago when science coexisted harmoniously with mythological beliefs. This artwork not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insights into Japan's cultural heritage and its fascination with martial arts. Utagawa Kunisada's masterful technique combined with his deep understanding of Japanese traditions make this piece an invaluable treasure within The Met
