About this work

This Japanese woodblock print by Kobayashi Kiyochika shows a painted wooden puppet with a stern red-lined face and a bearded, scroll-like figure holding a framed tiger picture, while a uniformed soldier kneels beside a red table. A column of handwritten Japanese calligraphy fills the upper portion of the sheet, and the work is part of the series Long Live Japan: One Hundred Victories, One Hundred Laughs.
