He wears a black sleeveless overgarment marked with a white cross-in-circle crest over a grey robe patterned with red plum blossoms, and pale blue fabric billows at his waist. His role name is brushed at the upper left; Kuniyoshi's signature is brushed at the lower left with two round black seals and a red seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUtagawa Kuniyoshi (1798–1861) brought heroes, monsters and spectacle into the ukiyo-e print. A pupil of Toyokuni, he made his name in 1827 with the series of the One Hundred and Eight Heroes of the Suikoden, tattooed warriors caught mid-action, and went on to giant skeletons, cats, whales and satirical puzzles that slipped past the censors. His restless invention influenced Yoshitoshi and, much later, tattoo and manga art. His prints are held by the British Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
