A Japanese woodblock print from 1886 by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, published by Kobayashi Tetsujirō, from a picture album of warrior subjects. It shows the legendary warrior Sakata no Kintoki beside the lord Minamoto no Raikō, with the title and publisher in Japanese cartouches. Designers can take its flat colour areas, bold outlines and dramatic poses from the warrior-print tradition.
