Comments - Fantastic triptych from the legendary tale of the Demon of Oeyama, the horrible Shuten-doji, who kidnapped young beauties and held them hostage in his lair on Mt. Oe near Kyoto. The great warrior Minamoto no Yorimitsu (Raiko) is shown disguised as a yamabushi or mountain monk traveling with his men to the demon's hideout. At upper left, red and green demons keep a lookout at the entrance to the demon's cave in the hillside, while below, a beauty washes a length of cloth in a rushing river. A terrific image with wonderful detail. A great dramatic image.
