Twenty-four Accomplishments in Imperial Japan - Yoshitoshi's late series "Twenty-four Accomplishments in Imperial Japan" highlights important figures throughout the history of Imperial Japan, from both legend and real life. These terrific images include valiant samurai, brave retainers, loyal wives, and fantastic demons. Beautifully drawn with a wonderful sense of realism and finely printed with rich jewel-tone colors, these designs are a great example of Yoshitoshi's mature artistic style. A great choice for a Yoshitoshi collector.

Title Page for Twenty-four Accomplishments in Imperial Japan - Handsome title page for Yoshitoshi's "Twenty-four Accomplishments in Japan" series. Dragons flames frame the black text panel, with a sun with radiating rays at top center, and stylized waves below, set against a gray background. We've only seen the title page for this series once before. A nice complement to the series.
