Starting out with vivid illustrations of cultural iconsincluding Kabuki actors and Japanese heroeshe moved on to a unique treatment of warrior prints, incorporating elements of dreams, omens, and daring feats that characterized his distinctive style. These dramatic eighteenth-century illustrations represent the pinnacle of his craft.
