Painting Description
"Gen Ushikawamaru Sojobo Ni Shitagai Bujutsu O Oboeru Zu" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese ukiyo-e artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1798–1861). Created during the Edo period, this work is part of Kuniyoshi's extensive oeuvre, which is celebrated for its dynamic depictions of historical figures, folklore, and kabuki actors. The title of the print can be translated to "Minamoto no Yoshitsune Learning Martial Arts from the Tengu King Sojobo," and it illustrates a legendary episode from the life of the 12th-century military hero Gen Ushikawamaru, better known as Minamoto no Yoshitsune.
In this print, Kuniyoshi captures the moment when Yoshitsune, still a young boy under the name Ushikawamaru, is being instructed in the martial arts by the mythical tengu Sojobo, the king of the tengu, who are supernatural creatures with human and avian characteristics. The scene is set in the mystical Mount Kurama, where Yoshitsune is said to have been raised and trained. Kuniyoshi's depiction is rich in detail and imbued with a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of his style.
Utagawa Kuniyoshi's works are highly regarded for their artistic quality and historical value, providing insight into Japanese culture, mythology, and the practice of woodblock printing. "Gen Ushikawamaru Sojobo Ni Shitagai Bujutsu O Oboeru Zu" is a testament to Kuniyoshi's skill in storytelling through visual art and remains an important piece within the genre of ukiyo-e, reflecting the artist's fascination with Japan's warrior past and the supernatural.
