EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense combat between sumo wrestlers Koyonagi Tsunekichi and Arauma Daigoro, as depicted in a stunning woodcut by renowned artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. Created in 1885, this artwork showcases the rich tradition and culture of Japanese wrestling. The image portrays two powerful men engaged in a fierce struggle, their muscular bodies clad in traditional costumes known as kimono. The intricate details of their attire highlight the artistry involved in sumo wrestling, while also showcasing the skillful craftsmanship of Yoshitoshi's woodcut technique. Surrounded by a breathtaking landscape featuring mountains and a volcano, this scene transports us to an ancient Japan where folklore and martial arts intertwined. The presence of an audience adds to the atmosphere, with spectators eagerly watching every move made by these formidable opponents. A referee stands at the center of it all, ensuring fairness and adherence to rules. In addition to capturing physical prowess, this artwork also incorporates elements of calligraphy with Chinese writing adorning the composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its significance as a representation of Japanese history and sporting heritage. This print serves as a testament to both Yoshitoshi's talent as an artist and his ability to immortalize moments that resonate across time.
