EDITORS COMMENTS
Kiso Komawakamaru Yoshinaka Conquering the Tengu," a captivating woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, dates back to the Meiji Era in 1866. This print is part of the series "Beauty and Valor in the Novel Suikoden." The image portrays the legendary figure Kiso Komawakamaru Yoshinaka, a hero from the Heian Period, in a full-length depiction as he courageously confronts a menacing Tengu, a mythical goblin-like creature with the wings and beak of a bird. The print showcases the intricate details of Yoshinaka's determined expression and his readiness for battle, as he grabs an arrow from his quiver, ready to shoot. The Tengu, with its sharp claws and fierce gaze, looms in the background, adding to the dramatic tension of the scene. The Kisō Mountains, a geographical feature in Japan, serve as the backdrop to this epic encounter. The print's vibrant colors and bold lines bring the story to life, highlighting the rich heritage and folklore of Japan. The calligraphy at the top of the print adds an elegant touch, providing context to the scene. The intricate details of the woodblock printing technique are evident in the textures of the clothing and the intricate patterns on the Tengu's wings. This print is a testament to the enduring legacy of Japanese art and the captivating stories and legends that have shaped the country's cultural heritage. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to house this magnificent piece, allowing viewers to appreciate the beauty and valor of Kiso Komawakamaru Yoshinaka as he conquers the Tengu.
