説明：
Unlike most other prints in this series, the moon here is symbolically represented in the ornamental helmet of Yamanaka Yukimori (1545–78). Born under a harvest moon, he considered it his personal lucky charm, and swore an oath to rebuild his clan under the light of a new moon in 1866. Ultimately unsuccessful, he surrendered and was murdered by his enemy. His confident stance and detailed depiction of his armor stand in stark contrast to the indistinct, murky background that envelops him. This work confirms the view of Yukimori as a man of principle in a morally ambiguous climate.
