EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Warrior Miura-no-suke Confronting Court Lady Tamamo-no-mae" takes us back to the Edo period in Japan, specifically the late 1820s. Created by Yashima Gakutei, a renowned Japanese artist from the 18th and 19th centuries, this polychrome woodblock print showcases his exceptional talent. The artwork depicts an intense moment as Warrior Miura-no-suke confronts Court Lady Tamamo-no-mae. Legend has it that Tamamo was a beautiful woman who could transform into an evil fox with nine tails. In this scene, we witness the warrior's bravery and determination as he stands tall against this formidable adversary. Gakutei's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of ink and color on the delicate paper. The composition captures our imagination with its dynamic energy and vivid portrayal of these legendary characters. Measuring approximately 8 5/16 x 7 3/8 inches (21.1 x 18.7 cm), this surimono print transports us to a time when honor, courage, and mythical beings were deeply intertwined in Japanese culture. As we admire this remarkable piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, let us appreciate not only Gakutei's artistic mastery but also the rich history and folklore that inspired such captivating works during Japan's Edo period.
