Description:
|
At the age of 11 Tsukioka Yoshitoshi was apprenticed to the ukiyoe artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi, who was to have a pronounced influence on his future work. In 1853 Yoshitoshi designed his first woodblock print, but no further work is known until 1858. From 1862 he began to produce pictures of warriors (mushae) and other historical subjects, which were to be amongst his most important themes. The story of the 108 Heroes of the Suikoden (Shuihu Zhuan) was Chinese in origin, written in the 14th century. The novel became extremely popular in Japan in the early 19th century. The stories relate the exploits of a group of outlaws, who lived on the fringe of society, and fought in the name of justice. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordart online.com/)
