100 Phases of the Moon: # 35 Mount Otowa Moon Artist: Yoshitoshi Format: Oban tate-e: 14.25" x 9.75" Subject: This design is taken from a Noh-play called Tamura. Three itinerant monks visit the Kiyomizu Temple on a moonlit night in Spring. A youth appears and begins to sweep away fallen cherry blossoms with a broom. The monks ask him about the history of the temple, he answers briefly and then disappears. A local commoner comes on stage and tells them that the youth must have been the ghost of Sakanoe no Tamuramaro, who was a famous general of the later Nara period (710-794). Date: 1886 Condition: Fine colors. Full size with large margins. A small area of offsetting from another print by falling cherry blossoms. Japanese album backing paper. Minor marks and flaws. Generally fine state of preservation. Impression: Fine impression with gauffrage and mica in the bokashi at top.
