芳年武者无類 畠山庄司重忠（収載資料名：[武者无類外ニ三枚続キ画帖]）

大蘇芳年 · 1883 · 1 picture

A Meiji-era Japanese woodblock print from 1883 by the artist Yoshitoshi, part of a picture album of warriors, showing the samurai Hatakeyama Shōji Shigetada mounted on a white horse. The composition is vertical with a bold red-and-blue palette, flat colour areas and dramatic bloodied detail, which a designer could use for strong graphic contrast and historical samurai imagery.
