Lingering Snow at Ishiyama: Suzuki Shigeyuki - Fantastic image of the samurai Suzuki Shigeyuki peering through snow-covered reeds with his pistol in one hand, waiting to ambush the great Oda Nobunaga. He wears a straw raincoat over a red print kimono and a fine suit of armor, his hair combed back over his shoulders. He pushes the grasses aside as he looks up intently, a determined expression on his face. A gray mist hangs over the setting, with the sky above darkening. Beautifully detailed with soft shading in the sky. Includes a fine spattering of white and gray pigment to simulate a spray of snow from moving the reeds. A great design from this rarely seen Kuniyoshi series.
