Notes |
Kintaro was a childhood name of the warrior hero Sakata no Kintoki. He was a strong boy raised in the wild by a mountain woman called Yamauba. The episode of him struggling with a giant carp has currently been traced only as far back as the 1820s. See the commentary to the print of the same subject by Kuniyoshi (where the boy is named Sakata Kaidōmaru) in Timothy Clark, Kuniyoshi, from the Arthur R. Miller Collection, London, RA Publications, 2009, no. 18. This is an early and very fine impression of a striking design considered among the most important of Yoshitoshi’s whole oeuvre. This print was formerly in the collection of Nihonga artist Kaburaki Kiyokata (q.v.) (T. Clark, 2/2012) Machida Shiritsu Kokusai Manga Bijutsukan, ed. Dai musha-e ten (2003), no. 257 See Roger Keyes, Courage and Silence (1982), no. 473; Chris Uhlenbeck & Amy Reigle Newland, Yoshitoshi: Masterpieces from the Ed Fries Collection (Hotei Publishing, 2011), no. 86. |

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
