Enchū no tsuki 1886

"Enchū no tsuki" (The Moon in the Enchū) is a woodblock print created in 1886 by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, a prominent Japanese artist of the late Edo period. The print depicts a lone figure carrying a lantern and a box, walking towards a large, full moon in a fiery landscape. Yoshitoshi, known for his dramatic and powerful imagery, uses bold strokes and vibrant colors to capture the essence of this mystical scene. This print is a prime example of Yoshitoshi's unique style, which combined traditional Japanese art forms with contemporary themes and influences.
