説明：
After the reigning warlord Oda Nobunaga (1534–82) died, a number of challengers emerged in the fight to control Japan. During one engagement his successor Toyotomi Hideyoshi (1537–98) blew the battle signal from a conch shell, rallying his army to attack the enemy stronghold. The striking helmet, representing iris leaves resembles an actual helmet owned by Hideyoshi and given to his retainer Nishimura Shigenari after the battle of Kyūshū in 1587. The unique design suggests that Yoshitoshi drew from knowledge of the artifact, reflecting the increasing emphasis on historical accuracy during this period.
