Original woodblock print triptych - Paper - Tsukioka Taiso Yoshitoshi (1839-1892) - 'Tokugawa kō Toyotomi shokō kyōō zu' 徳川公豊臣諸侯饗応図 (Lord Tokugawa Entertains Toyotomi and other Feudal Lords) - Japan - 1876 (Meiji 9)
The signature is ‘Ouju yoshitoshi ‘大蘇芳年
Very good condition, trimmed margins
Around the Meiji era, it became possible to draw things related to Tokugawa, which had been prohibited before.
This work is one of them. The scene is that after the Battle of Sekigahara, in an era when the power changed from Toyotomi to Tokugawa, Tokugawa Ieyasu held a tea party and tried to poison Kiyomasa Kato, a loyal retainer of the Toyotomi family.
It doesn't have the flashiness of Yoshitoshi's paintings of warriors or monsters, but it conveys the unique atmosphere of political scenes.
