Utagawa Kuniyoshi was one of the last great masters of the ukiyo-e woodblock print tradition, active in Edo (now Tokyo) from the 1810s to the 1860s. He specialised in warrior prints (musha-e) depicting samurai, legendary heroes, and figures from Japanese history and mythology. His prints were technically daring -- wide compositions, dramatic foreshortening, dynamic poses -- and hugely popular. The Tokugawa shogunate censored him twice for political subversion embedded in his imagery. About this deck
