EDITORS COMMENTS

The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the legend of Soga no Gorō Tokimune to life as he stealthily creeps through the corridor of Minamoto no Yoritomo's residence.
The scene captures a moment of suspense and intrigue as Tokimune, armed with a katana blade, navigates his way past a sleeping guard. The artist skillfully conveys the tension of the situation through the use of color and composition, drawing viewers into this tale of deception and revenge.
As part of an oban triptych series, this print is not just a work of art but also a window into Japanese folklore and historical storytelling. The Soga brothers' legendary tale unfolds before our eyes, inviting us to immerse ourselves in their world filled with honor, betrayal, and redemption.
