Kiyochika - The Shivering Commander

Kiyochika - The Shivering Commander

Kobayashi Kiyochika

Powerful propaganda print, "The Shivering Commander - Trembling Retirement, Bone Skin Dojin". From the series "Long Live Japan: One Hundred Victories, One Hundred Laughs" (Nihon banzai: Hyakusen hyakushō 日本万歳 百撰百笑)

Kiyochika was active in political satire and comics that focus on current affairs. Kiyochika studied Western style newspaper caricatures, especially the ones by London journalist Charles Wirgman (1832-91). He applied the new humorous looks to the Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese war print series, which became very popular. It created an exaggerated and distorted image, making a mockery of the Chinese people. 

Date: 1904

Condition: Good color. Backed with Meji era paper, margins as shown.

Genre: Ukiyo-e
