Yoshitoshi, a prominent figure in the late Ukiyo-e movement, is recognised for his ability to blend traditional Japanese artistic techniques with contemporary subject matter. This print exemplifies his skill in capturing everyday life with a touch of the fantastical. \n\nThe composition depicts a man in a purple patterned robe, seemingly caught in the act of passing wind towards a Kappa, a mythical water sprite from Japanese folklore. The Kappa, rendered in green with a turtle-like shell and a distinctive dish on its head, recoils in apparent disgust. A young boy, also dressed in patterned clothing, watches the scene with a mixture of curiosity and apprehension. The backdrop features a lumber yard and a body of water, providing context to the location. The scene is rendered with fine lines and flat planes of colour, typical of Ukiyo-e prints. The artist's attention to detail, from the patterns on the clothing to the ripples in the water, adds depth and interest to the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/sonosuke-in-the-role-of-koharu-yamamura-toyonari\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSonosuke in the role of Koharu - Yamamura Toyonari — Yamamura Kōka\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/amaterasu-omikami-appearing-from-the-cave-tsukioka-yoshitoshi\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAmaterasu Ōmikami appearing from the cave - Tsukioka Yoshitoshi — Yoshitoshi\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Tsukioka Yoshitoshi","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57669724930383,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57669735022927,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57669735055695,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57669735088463,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57669735121231,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Farting-at-a-Kappa-at-the-Lumber-Yard-in-Fukagawa_Poster_CompositorV1_1778547365586.jpg?v=1778555199","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/farting-at-a-kappa-at-the-lumber-yard-in-fukagawa-tsukioka-yoshitoshi","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
