Yasuhiro Surveying his Army Being Washed Away
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning triptych woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Yoshitora, created around 1850. This artwork, a part of the "Conquest of Oshu" series, offers a poignant depiction of the 12th century Battle of Oshu and the subsequent defeat of the Fujiwara clan. The central image showcases the defeated Genpei warlord, Fujiwara no Yasuhira, standing on a balcony overlooking the coast. His expression is one of contemplation and acceptance, as he surveys the remnants of his once formidable army being washed away by the relentless sea. The defeated soldiers, their spirits low, can be seen abandoning their ships and fleeing inland, their arrows and quivers discarded. The architectural feature of the balcony, with its ornate design and intricate details, adds an element of contrast to the chaotic scene below. The tranquil view to the sea, with its calm waters and distant mountains, serves as a reminder of the transient nature of power and the inevitability of change. The triptych's vibrant colors and intricate details are a testament to the skill and artistry of Utagawa Yoshitora. The use of color woodblock printing techniques adds depth and texture to the image, making it a valuable piece of Asian heritage art and an essential addition to any collection focusing on historic Japanese art or military history. This evocative artwork, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, invites viewers to reflect on the human condition and the consequences of war. The image of Yasuhira, watching as his army is carried away by the sea, serves as a poignant reminder of the passage of time and the ephemeral nature of power.
