Armed Bodhisattva Mercy Russo Japanese Thousand Woodblocks Woodcuts


EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking woodblock print, titled 'One Thousand-Armed Russian Bodhisattva of Mercy of the Russo-Japanese War,' depicts a poignant and symbolic scene from the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905. The print shows a determined Japanese soldier, armed with a rifle fixed with a bayonet, standing before the One Thousand-Armed Russian Bodhisattva of Mercy. The Bodhisattva, a deity from Mahayana Buddhism, is depicted with a thousand arms, each holding various symbols of war and destruction - battleships, cannons, and money bags. The Japanese soldier, representing the relentless and unyielding spirit of the Japanese military, smashes the Russian battleships and money bags as quickly as they are added to the Russian war effort by the Bodhisattva. The destruction is taking place in front of the Bodhisattva, who is known for her compassion and mercy, symbolizing the futility of war and the devastating consequences it brings. The woodblock print, created in Japan during the Meiji period, is a powerful commentary on the war and its impact on both Russia and Japan. The use of the Bodhisattva as a symbol adds a layer of spiritual significance to the image, emphasizing the destructive nature of war and the need for compassion and mercy in times of conflict. The print is a testament to the artistic and cultural exchange between Russia and Japan during this period and serves as a reminder of the human cost of war.
