Confront the supernatural in full force with Part 2 of Mitsukuni Defying the Skeleton Specter by Utagawa Kuniyoshi—a riveting continuation of the iconic Edo-period triptych that fuses myth, menace, and masterful design. This framed wall print captures the climactic moment of tension, as the towering skeleton specter emerges in full, its exaggerated form rendered with Kuniyoshi’s signature precision and theatrical scale.
Positioned at the heart of the composition, the skeleton’s outstretched limbs and piercing gaze dominate the scene, amplifying the sense of dread and urgency. Traditional Japanese banners with bold red script flank the figure, adding layers of narrative and historical intrigue. The mountainous backdrop and storm-laden skies intensify the mood, while the interplay of shadow and texture evokes the stylized drama of kabuki theater.
Ideal for collectors, designers, and lovers of Japanese folklore, Part 2 delivers cinematic impact and cultural resonance in equal measure.
Note: This is Part 2 of 3. The complete artwork spans three prints, each sold separately. Display individually or collect all three for the full visual narrative.
