Description
Fujinami Yukarinosuke appears in this 1867 print as a warrior figure rendered in the vigorous musha-e tradition that dominated Yoshitoshi's output during the late 1860s. The name and subject belong to the cycle of popular samurai fiction and historical narrative that provided a vast reservoir of subjects for Meiji-era printmakers. During this period Yoshitoshi was at his most prolific in warrior subjects, producing multiple prints monthly for a market hungry for images of martial heroism.
