EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi transports us to late 19th century Japan, immersing us in a scene of both beauty and tension. Entitled "Moon Over Shinobugaoka" the print is part of Yoshitoshi's renowned series, One Hundred Aspects of the Moon, created between 1885 and 1892. In this particular piece, we witness Gyokuensai, a young samurai warrior, caught off guard by the forceful wind that blows blossom petals around him. Startled by this unexpected gust, his gaze fixates on a robe mysteriously tied to a tree nearby. The moon shines brightly above him as he stands in his vibrant kimono adorned with intricate patterns. The fine artistry of this woodblock print is evident in every detail - from the colorful blossoms swirling through the air to Gyokuensai's determined expression and poised stance. His sword rests at his side, ready for action should danger arise. Yoshitoshi masterfully captures not only the physical aspects but also the emotional depth of his subjects. Through this image, we can sense Gyokuensai's fear mingled with curiosity as he navigates an uncertain world filled with both tranquility and conflict. As viewers, we are transported back in time to experience a moment frozen forever within this woodcut masterpiece. It serves as a testament to Yoshitoshi's skill as an artist and storyteller while providing us with glimpses into Japan's rich
