EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Japanese outlaw, Ishikawa Goemon (1558-1594), as portrayed by an actor. The woodcut, created by Toyokuni Utagawa in 1827, beautifully captures the essence of this iconic figure from early Japanese history. Dressed in traditional attire, the actor embodies the spirit of Goemon with his striking kimono and warrior-like appearance. His intense gaze and confident stance convey a sense of strength and determination that befits a man who became a legend in his own right. Goemon's story is steeped in folklore and has often been likened to that of Robin Hood. Known for his acts of defiance against oppressive authorities, he was revered as a hero among the common people. This image serves as a visual testament to his enduring legacy.
