EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Sumo Wrestler Daidozan Bungoro at a tender age of 7, capturing his early journey towards greatness. Housed in a private collection, this image offers a glimpse into the rich heritage and tradition of Japanese sumo wrestling during the Edo period. The fine art woodcut beautifully captures Daidozan's youthful physique and exudes an aura of strength and power. As an athlete in training, he embodies the essence of physical culture and athleticism that has been deeply ingrained in Asian traditions for centuries. In this genre scene, we witness Daidozan immersed in his free time pursuit - honing his skills and preparing himself for future battles on the sumo dohyō. The attention to detail by artist Shunei Katsukawa (1762-1819) is evident as every muscle is meticulously depicted, showcasing both the beauty and intensity of this ancient sport. Sumo wrestling holds immense significance within Japanese folklore, symbolizing discipline, dedication, and respect. This portrait serves as a testament to these values while also highlighting the inherent grace found within such a physically demanding sport. As we admire this rare woodcut from afar, it transports us back to Japan's Far East past where tradition intertwines with contemporary sportsmanship. It reminds us that even at a young age, athletes like Daidozan Bungoro possess an unwavering commitment to their craft - one that will shape them into legends within their chosen field.
