Painting Description
"Hideyoshi (c.1536-98) Blowing a Conch Shell" is a captivating woodblock print from the renowned series "100 Phases of the Moon" by the celebrated Japanese artist Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. Created during the Meiji period, this series is widely regarded as one of Yoshitoshi's masterpieces, showcasing his exceptional skill in ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese woodblock printing.

In this particular print, Yoshitoshi depicts Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a prominent daimyo, warrior, and politician of the Sengoku period, who played a crucial role in the unification of Japan. Hideyoshi is shown blowing a conch shell, an instrument traditionally used in Japan to signal the start of battle or to communicate across distances. The image captures a moment of intense focus and determination, reflecting Hideyoshi's strategic acumen and his pivotal role in Japanese history.
Yoshitoshi's use of color, composition, and intricate detailing in "Hideyoshi Blowing a Conch Shell" exemplifies his mastery of the woodblock printing technique. The artist's ability to convey emotion and narrative through visual elements is evident in the dynamic posture of Hideyoshi and the atmospheric background, which often features the moon as a symbolic presence.
