"The Story of Tamiya Bōtarō," a woodblock print by Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, depicts a scene from a traditional Japanese tale. The print, created in 1886, showcases Yoshitoshi's mastery of the ukiyo-e style, known for its vibrant colors and detailed depictions of everyday life. The image portrays a woman, likely Tamiya Bōtarō herself, hanging from a well while a young boy sits nearby amidst a lush landscape of lotus flowers and melon vines. This print is one of Yoshitoshi's most famous works and exemplifies his ability to capture the beauty and drama of Japanese folklore.
