Grote overwinning van het keizerrijk in de zeeslag met China c. 1894

This woodblock print by Utagawa Kunihide, titled "Grote overwinning van het keizerrijk in de zeeslag met China," depicts a dramatic scene of a naval battle between Japan and China. The artist uses dynamic lines and vibrant colors to capture the intensity of the conflict. The print likely celebrates a Japanese victory and showcases the power of the Imperial Japanese Navy. This is a valuable example of ukiyo-e, a genre of Japanese art that flourished in the Edo period, and offers insight into the social and political climate of the time.
