EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking woodblock print captures the moment of fear and awe as Raijin, the Japanese God of Thunder, is believed to have intervened in the Battle of Telissu near Tokuriji, near Nanshan, in 1904. The image, located in the upper left corner of the print, shows Raijin with his drum and thunderbolt, ready to unleash his wrath upon the invading Russian soldiers. The chaos of the battlefield is depicted in the background, with soldiers retreating in disarray outside the city walls. The Battle of Telissu was a significant engagement during the Russo-Japanese War, which took place from 1904 to 1905. The Japanese forces, led by General Oyama Iwao, successfully defended their position against the larger and better-equipped Russian army. According to Japanese folklore, the intervention of Raijin was a crucial factor in the victory, as the god's presence instilled fear in the hearts of the Russian soldiers and disrupted their advance. This woodblock print is a testament to the deep-rooted belief in the power of the gods in Japanese culture, and the role they played in shaping the outcome of historical events. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the print bring the scene to life, transporting us back in time to witness this moment of divine intervention in the midst of war.
