説明:
The Japanese have always enjoyed tales that salute the bravery and loyalty of the military class (samurai). In the Meiji period (1868-1912), the "way of the samurai" of earlier times became everyman's code, and the heroes of past eras, such as Ise Saburo, became devices for defining a modern nation. A new historical consciousness developed that viewed the past as the history of a Japanese people and appropriated it to develop a sense of nationhood. Migita Toshihide studied with the Japanese Western style painter Kunizawa Shinkuro (1847-1977), who has studied oil painting in London. Toshihide frequently depicted historical scenes and representations of ancient and modern heroes. A wood block artist and illustrator for books and newspapers, Toshihide is best known for his Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese war prints.
