Description
A woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi depicting Taira no Tomomori, a military commander of the late Heian period. The print is characterised by its fine lines and attention to detail, typical of Yoshitoshi's work.
This woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) depicts Taira no Tomomori, a military commander of the late Heian period of Japan. Yoshitoshi, a master of the ukiyo-e style, is recognised for his innovative approach to the genre, blending traditional techniques with modern sensibilities. He is regarded as one of the last great artists of ukiyo-e. The print shows Tomomori in full armour, accompanied by a female attendant. He stands before a wooden door, holding what appears to be a closed fan. The composition is carefully balanced, with attention paid to the details of the armour and the surrounding environment. The colour palette is restrained, with muted greens, blues, and browns dominating the scene. The print is characterised by its fine lines and attention to detail, typical of Yoshitoshi's work. The print is part of the series 'Biographies of Heroic Figures'.
