Magician of Power ☳ Kunisada ☰ Canvas

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.

⿴ About Stretched Canvas

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.

⿻ Materials

Giclée printed with eco-solvent inks to resist fading for over 100 years

Canvases are archival-grade, acid-free, satin-finish polycotton fabric

Frames and stretcher bars are solid wood with black backboard and hanging wire installed
