When the warriors marched out to battle, Shogun Yoritomo gave a good black horse called Ikezuki to Kajiwara Kagesue, a devoted soldier. He gave another good white horse called Surusumi to Sasaki Takatsuna, Kagesue's rival, and made each warrior swear to take command and win the next battle. Both Takatsuna and Kagesue start from the front, and each tries his best in this race to take the lead. To pursue the enemy, they must cross the Uji River. After a duel, Takatsuna defeats Kagesue and routs the enemy. From this context, the names of the Uji River and the two warriors became very famous in Japanese war history.------------------- ▼Artist ------------------- Hasegawa Sadanobu III (1881-1963) was the third generation of Japanese printmakers, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather. Born in Osaka as the son of Sadanobu II, he studied under Shijo painter Ueda Kocho and later Utagawa Sadamasu, becoming part of the Osaka school. Most of Hasegawa Sadanobu III's woodblock prints were produced after World War II. Hasegawa Sadanobu III sought to bring the art of Japanese printmaking into the 20th century. Most of his work was produced at the request of the Uchida Company in Kyoto, one of Japan's largest woodblock publishers at the time. His technique followed the old Japanese tradition of handcrafting all woodblocks, while occasionally adding more modern features, such as embossing with metal pigments, to some of his prints. Hasegawa Sadanobu III employed a style that combined the old okiyo-e tradition with a modern approach. His subjects included the traditional focal points of traditional ukiyo-e, such as kabuki, bunraku, and beautiful girls from Kyoto, but also scenes and events from Japanese medieval history and legends. His work was primarily aimed at overseas markets, and his choice of colour and subject matter almost replicated the imagery of Disneyland in Japan.------------------- ● Please note that tariffs may be applied depending on the country.* Our shop will pay the customs duty in Japan.* Please check the tariff amount of each country in each country.
