A Sumo Legends: Wakahanada és Takahanada Brothers remekműve fablokknyomata, Kinoshita Daimon - Kinoshita Daimon 木下 大門 (b 1946) - Japán - Shōwa period (1926-1989)
Step into the vibrant world of sumo wrestling with this striking nishiki-e woodblock print titled "Wakanohana and Takanohana Brothers," depicting the famous sumo wrestlers Wakanohana and Takanohana during their youth as Wakahanada and Takahanada. Created by the celebrated artist Kinoshita Daimon, born in 1946 in Hokkaido, this print is a testament to the artist's dedication to the craft of ukiyo-e. Kinoshita, inspired by the illustrious Katsukawa school, taught himself in the styles of masters such as Katsukawa Shunshō and Shunei.
Upon visiting the Eihōsai workshop in 1980, Kinoshita resolved to pursue the traditional path of ukiyo-e artists, and this piece is a splendid example of his commitment. Authorized by the Japan Sumo Association and crafted using the same techniques from the Edo period by a team consisting of designated carver Kijima Shigeo and printer Itō Tomoaki, under the Kyoto Hanga-in publisher, this work symbolizes a revival of the sumo nishiki-e.
This particular print features the imposing figures of the legendary sumo wrestlers, Wakahanada and Takahanada, who later became known as Wakanohana and Takanohana, the first brother yokozuna in Japan's history. They are depicted in a classical pose that exudes strength and dignity. The dynamic composition and meticulous attention to detail capture the essence of these iconic figures, who have left an indelible mark on the world of sumo wrestling.
Kinoshita Daimon's contributions extend beyond nishiki-e to a range of sumo-related artifacts, including the creation of banzuke (ranking sheets), mini banners, and wrestler dolls, enriching the sumo culture with his artworks at each tournament.
Owning this piece not only means acquiring a visually stunning work of art but also a slice of sumo history and Japanese cultural heritage, curated by an artist whose life work is recognized as a vital ethnic cultural property. It is an exquisite find for collectors and enthusiasts alike, eager to embrace the spirit of sumo through the timeless art of woodblock printing.
