Comments - Intriguing scene from the Satsuma Rebellion of a rebel officer striking a drum. The leader of the rebels, Saigo Takamori, sits in a plush chair at right, clutching his hat to his chest. Smoke billows from a metal stand in the center of the room, and a woman warrior and a samurai keep watch out the window at left. Detailed with burnishing in the black uniform and fine bokashi shading in the smoke. A fascinating subject from this historic conflict.
