EDITORS COMMENTS
Toriyama Shusaku Terutada Capturing a Pheasant with a Bow," a stunning woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, dates back to the Meiji Era of the 19th century, specifically the year 1866. This artwork is part of the "Beauty and Valor in the Novel Suikoden" series, showcasing the harmony between the natural world and the human spirit. The print depicts the historic figure, Toriyama Shusaku Terutada, in a full-length portrait, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing. He wears a hakama, a traditional divided skirt worn with a kimono, and a formal jacket, accessorized with a katana sword at his side. The artist masterfully captures the essence of the Meiji period through the intricate details of the clothing and accessories. The central focus of the print is the moment of the hunt, as Toriyama draws back his bow, aiming for a pheasant perched on a rocky outcrop amidst a lush, green landscape. The vibrant colors and bold lines of the print bring the scene to life, with the pheasant's feathers a striking contrast against the rich greens of the foliage and the rocky terrain. The artist's use of calligraphy adds an elegant touch to the piece, with the title and artist's signature delicately inscribed in the bottom right corner. The print's intricate details and beautiful composition make it a standout piece of heritage art, showcasing the beauty and valor of the Meiji Era in Japan. This woodblock print is now part of the prestigious collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its rich history and stunning visual appeal.
