A woodblock print by Utagawa Kuniyoshi depicting Kaida Yadaemon Tomonobu from the Chushingura story. The work exemplifies Kuniyoshi's skill in portraying dynamic figures and historical narratives.
This woodblock print by Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1798-1861) depicts Kaida Yadaemon Tomonobu, a figure from the Chushingura story, also known as the Tale of the 47 Ronin. Kuniyoshi was a prominent artist of the Ukiyo-e style, known for his dynamic compositions and depictions of historical and mythical subjects. His work often featured warriors, ghosts, and scenes from popular literature. The print shows Kaida Yadaemon in a moment of action, his stance suggesting both defence and readiness. He is armed with multiple swords and arrows, prepared for combat. The figure is partially obscured by a tall, patterned screen or banner, adding depth to the composition. The patterns on the screen feature stylised floral motifs and geometric shapes, rendered in a contrasting colour palette. The print includes text, typical of Ukiyo-e works, which provides context or narrative elements related to the scene. The overall impression is one of dramatic tension and martial prowess, characteristic of Kuniyoshi's warrior prints.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
