Angry Warrior Wielding a Club, 1890

Comments - Fantastic kabuki portrait of a warrior on a black horse, wielding an enormous club above his head with both hands as he rides. He grimaces with rage as he looks back at a samurai standing beside a pine tree, arrows protruding from his armor. The warrior wears a magnificent white robe patterned with dragons over a fine suit of armor, his black hair blowing wildly about his head. His horse rears its head as lightning flashes across the black night sky in jagged bolts of red and orange. Arrows fly across the scene all around the warrior. An incredible, masterful design, one we've never before offered.
