Comments - Handsome scene from the Battle of Kawanakajima showing Uesugi Shingen and his troops massed along the edge of the river. Shingen sits on a black lacquer stool, wearing a green robe over his armor and a monk's cowl around his battle helmet. His retainers are gathered around him in full armor, gripping swords and spears. A large fringed standard topped with a paulownia crest rises high above the men next to a banner with the same symbol. Nice detail in the expressive figures, armor and weapons.
