Magician of Power ☳ Kunisada ☰ Art Print
Magician of Power Môun-kokushi and Exploding Rocks (1863) by Utagawa Kunisada depicts the actor Ichikawa Kodanji IV as the magician Môun-kokushi from the kabuki drama Chin-setsu yumi-hari zuki. Môun, an evil monk, attempts to seize control of the kingdom of Ryûkyû from the warrior Tametomo. Môun demonstrates his power in a huge explosion of rocks, emphasized by the lines emanating from behind his head. He holds a Vajrayana bell in his right hand, his left hand forming a mudra of power with two upturned fingers from which rise a cloud of smoke. After a prolonged conflict, peace is restored to Ryûkyû after Tametomo's decisive victory over Môun.

Art prints are created from a giclée print on archival heavyweight paper that can be mounted in a frame. Different paper finishes allow you to customize the appearance: smooth paper maintains detail and color; textured paper slightly softens color with a traditional paper finish; and resin coated paper slightly deepens color adding a semi-gloss finish. Framed prints do not come with protective glass / glazing, to showcase the paper and reduce light reflection (it is available upon request).
