"Admiral Perry On Horseback" is a woodblock print by Utagawa Yoshitora, a Japanese artist active during the late Edo and early Meiji periods. The print is part of a genre known as Yokohama-e, which depicts Westerners and scenes related to the opening of the port of Yokohama following the arrival of Commodore Matthew C. Perry and his "Black Ships" in 1853-1854, an event that led to the end of Japan's period of national isolation (sakoku).

Utagawa Yoshitora was a student of Utagawa Kuniyoshi, one of the last great masters of the ukiyo-e genre of woodblock prints. Yoshitora is known for his works that capture the curiosity and ambivalence of the Japanese people toward Westerners and their technology during a time of rapid modernization and cultural exchange.

The print "Admiral Perry On Horseback" is significant as it reflects the Japanese perspective on the influential American figure, Commodore Perry, who played a pivotal role in opening Japan to trade with the United States and, by extension, the Western world. In this work, Yoshitora portrays Perry in a manner that combines traditional Japanese artistic techniques with the novelty of the subject matter, illustrating the blend of East and West that characterized this transformative period in Japanese history.

The artwork is characterized by its vivid colors, attention to detail, and the use of traditional ukiyo-e stylization to depict a contemporary historical figure. As with many works of this period, it may also reflect a degree of artistic license and interpretation, as Japanese artists of the time often relied on second-hand accounts and their imagination to portray Western figures and technology.

"Admiral Perry On Horseback" serves as a valuable historical document, providing insight into the Japanese view of Western influence and the complexities of cultural exchange during the mid-19th century. It remains an important piece for scholars studying the Meiji Restoration, Japanese art history, and cross-cultural interactions between Japan and the West.
