Mannen haori met draak, anonymous, 1920 - 1940 Canvas Print
Haori for a man with a decoration on the lining of a rectangular image of a dragon between clouds, partially overlaps at the bottom left by a square with a calligraphed text: 'Daijobu kotae yuhi' (literally: 'confidently responding the great leap'; Forward for the big leap with certain mind), signature 'Nanshu', seal: 'Takamori'. Saigo Takamori (1828-1877) was a high-ranking samurai who played an influential role in the early Meiji period, as an opponent of far-reaching Western influences. The text here may refer to Takamori's desire to invade Korea; in that nationalistic sense, the dragon could be a symbol of the Imperial House. Black shiny silk (habutae) with decoration in stenciled yuzen. Five family coats of arms (mon) from three fold ranges (ogi).
