EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "The haunting presence of Taira no Tomomori, a legendary general from Japan's Genpei War, is captured in this mesmerizing color woodcut print. The image depicts the ghostly figure of Tomomori resting at the bottom of the ocean, forever bound to his tragic fate. Clutched tightly in his ethereal hands is the anchor he used to drown himself following his defeat in the Battle of Dan-no-ura. Created during Japan's Edo period by Utagawa Kuniyoshi, a masterful artist renowned for his ukiyo-e prints, this artwork showcases both allegory and historical significance. It serves as a poignant reminder of the fierce battles fought during one of Japan's most tumultuous periods. The fine details and vibrant colors bring life to this scene, transporting viewers back to an era steeped in mythology and valorous tales. This privately held masterpiece offers a glimpse into Japanese artistry and cultural heritage. As we gaze upon Taira no Tomomori's spectral form, we are reminded not only of his personal tragedy but also of the larger narrative that unfolds within Asian history. This artwork stands as a testament to Kuniyoshi's skillful storytelling through graphic arts while preserving significant moments from ancient times. This photograph print serves as an invaluable addition to any collection dedicated to Oriental arts or those fascinated by Asia’s rich tapestry. "
