"Takeda Shingen's Artillery Attacking The Castle Of Suwa Yorishige" is a woodblock print by the renowned Japanese artist Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1798–1861), who was one of the last great masters of the ukiyo-e genre of woodblock printing and painting. This print is part of a larger series that illustrates scenes from the life of the famous daimyō (feudal lord) Takeda Shingen (1521–1573), a preeminent military leader of the Sengoku period in Japan.

The artwork vividly depicts the historical event when Takeda Shingen laid siege to the castle of Suwa Yorishige in 1542. Suwa Yorishige was a rival warlord who controlled the Suwa Domain in Shinano Province, and the siege was part of Shingen's campaign to expand his territory. The print showcases the use of artillery, a relatively new addition to Japanese warfare at the time, demonstrating the innovative military tactics that Takeda Shingen employed to subdue his enemies.

Kuniyoshi's dynamic composition and attention to detail bring the scene to life, with the castle under a barrage of cannon fire, smoke billowing into the sky, and the forces of Takeda Shingen advancing. The print is characterized by Kuniyoshi's bold use of color, dramatic portrayal of figures, and the intricate patterns and textures that adorn the warriors' armor and the surrounding landscape.

As a historical document, the print provides insight into the military technology and strategies of the period, as well as the political conflicts that shaped the course of Japanese history. As an artistic work, it exemplifies Kuniyoshi's skill in narrative storytelling through visual imagery and his ability to convey movement and tension within the static medium of woodblock prints.

Utagawa Kuniyoshi's work remains significant in the study of Japanese art and the ukiyo-e tradition, and "Takeda Shingen's Artillery Attacking The Castle Of Suwa Yorishige" stands as a testament to his mastery of the genre and his contribution to the visual representation of Japan's feudal past.
