EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the legendary tale of Hidesato and the centipede. Illustrated by F Hadland Davis in 1918, this color lithograph brings to life the dramatic scene from "The Myths and Legends of Japan". In this mythical narrative, Hidesato, also known as The Lord Bag of Rice, faces off against a monstrous centipede that terrorizes Mount Mikami. Armed with his trusty bow and arrow, Hidesato must summon all his courage and skill to defeat this formidable creature. As we gaze at the image, we witness Hidesato's determination etched on his face as he takes aim at the menacing centipede. With each arrow he releases, our anticipation grows. It is said that it is only with his third arrow—imbued with saliva—that he manages to strike down the giant insect. The artist Paul Evelyn masterfully depicts this epic battle between man and monster. The vibrant colors bring out every detail of both characters—the fiery breath of the centipede contrasting with Hidesato's resolute stance. This illustration not only showcases Japanese mythology but also highlights themes such as bravery, heroism, and triumph over adversity. It serves as a reminder that even in fantastical tales like these, human strength can overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges. Displayed within private collections worldwide, this print continues to captivate viewers with its rich storytelling and artistic brilliance.
