soldSep. 07, 2023TSUKIOKA YOSHITOSHI: TRIPTYCH OF THE GREAT BATTLE OF AWAZUGAHARA, 1867
Est: €300 - €600TSUKIOKA YOSHITOSHI: TRIPTYCH OF THE GREAT BATTLE OF AWAZUGAHARA, 1867 By Yoshitoshi Tsukioka (1839 - 1892), signed Tsukioka Yoshitoshi Japan, dated 1867 Color woodblock print on paper. A terrific depiction from the ‘Battle of Awazugahara’ (Awazugahara okassen no zu), the woman warrior Tomoe-gozen on a dappled horse, taking a brief break on a hilltop as the battle continues along the shore below. Her armor pierced with arrows, and the blade covered in blood. The warrior at left rests his hands atop a bloody sword, looking up with a defiant expression. To her right, a samurai kneels alongside a stream to fill his hat with water. Signed Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. Provenance: Czech private collection. Condition: Good condition, worm holes, creasing, the edges slightly worn. Dimensions: Size 36.2 x 24 cm (each sheet) Tsukioka Yoshitoshi was one of the leading woodblock print artists during the Meiji era (1868-1912) and one of the last to work in the traditional ukiyo-e manner. Born in Edo (today’s Tokyo), he showed a strong interest in classical Japanese literature and history. When he was 11, he became a student at Kuniyoshi Utagawa’s studio. Under his teacher’s guidance, he showed exquisite draftsmanship and learned how to draw from life, something not necessarily part of the training schools of painting and illustration in Japan.
