Hinomaru Yosegaki Flag
日の丸 寄せ書き
Size: 70×88 cm
Material: cotton
This is a rare old flag.
During World War II, the Japanese created this flag to send soldiers off to war.
The words written here are words of support for soldiers going to the battlefield and names of supporters.
Japanese flags have large white margins and are used to communicate intentions to others by writing letters, just like a letter. Various designs exist for wartime yosegaki flags.
It is a very powerful flag,because it contains many encouraging words and the names of many people.
It conveys a very strong will and even a sense of fear. It is filled with soul.
As a Japanese, I feel "SAMURAI 侍," "BUSHIDO 武士道," and the strong spiritual power of Japan in this flag.
It is a wonderful work, full of presence.
This flag has the names of the soldiers going to war, but not the names of those cheering them on.
It is unknown now, but the production of this flag was stopped in the middle of making it.
Years passed without it being used.
Still, what beautiful colors on this flag. This vintage color looks golden. Very nice.
Carefully packaged and shipped from Japan to overseas.
Other rare items are also available in my current auction.
